Episode 2: Harry Bolick (Mississippi Fiddle Tunes and Songs from the 1930s)

Today we have a very special friend on the show, Harry Bolick. This year Harry released his book of transcriptions called Mississippi Fiddle Tunes and Songs from the 1930s, and we’re going to play a few tunes from it. These tunes are really interesting; definitely a departure from your typical Appalachian stuff.  If you want to become a patron of the show and access exclusive bonus content, go to http://patreon.com/getupinthecool  Check out Harry's Website: http://mississippifiddle.com Get the book at the University Press of Mississippi: http://www.upress.state.ms.us/books/1839 or Barnes and Noble: http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/mississippi-fiddle-tunes-and-songs-from-the-1930s-harry-bolick/1121843180  or Amazon (so many options!): https://www.amazon.com/Mississippi-Fiddle-Tunes-Songs-American/dp/1496804074  Download the recordings from Bandcamp: https://harrybolick.bandcamp.com or order discs from: http://mississippifiddle.com.Support Get Up in the Cool
