I learned this waltz "Sheguiandah Bay" by Ontario fiddler, Don Pettigrew, when I was a little girl. I fondly remember playing it for a full dance floor at our Renfrew County Fiddlers dances with other local fiddlers. I taught it to one of my students today and wanted to play it one more time, so here it is. 💙 | April Verch

I've started converting a few family VHS tapes to digital and came across this gem from 1986. Here we are tapping the maple trees and playing some tunes as the sap boils. Very special memories for me and I thought some of you might enjoy seeing a couple of moments of the footage too! | April Verch

Our favourite tune is always the one we've just finished learning! 🙂 This one, Needle Case, is a work in prograss and we're having so much fun finding our way with it. Our inspiration is the recording by Bob Carlin & Pete Sutherland (Fiddle Tunes For Clawhammer Banjo on Rounder Records, 1980.) Happy Monday 😎🎵 | April Verch

We co-wrote a new tune...in about 15 minutes...and then recorded it so we wouldn't forget it :) It's still a little raw and it may yet morph a little (they usually do after a few days of settling in) but we thought we'd share it all the same! No title yet... | April Verch

Today on my lunch break I was washing the dishes, looking out the kitchen window, when this tune, in one complete piece, popped into my head. I dried my hands, grabbed my fiddle, and recorded it. It doesn't happen that way very often, but when it does, it sure is special! I'm going to call it "Robin on the Wagon Wheel" because it's something Cody said the other day when looking out that very same window. Plus at the end of the B part you can sing "look at the robin on the wagon wheel" and it fit
