Fiddlin' Dixie with Friends

Fiddlin' Dixie with Friends

Good Music, Good Friends, and Good Times! This page was created to keep up with the happenings and share events with fellow musicians and music fans.

Not only has it evolved into a place of great memories with departed musicians but also shows a footprint of every musician and fan that has come into my heart. I carry these imprints (teachings, experiences, and friendships) with me throughout my career in music. These talented friends are the ones who have helped me evolve in my talents (sharing tunes, technique, and the joys of music). It's great fun to be Fiddlin' Dixie with Friends.

Behind The Mic with Terry Thacker - Bluegrass Today Post navigation Previous PostNext Post Behind The Mic with Terry Thacker Posted on October 30, 2014December 13, 2016 by John Curtis Goad It’s a common story in bluegrass music: mountain boy moves north, but tries to keep his roots close. Most of the time in songs, there’s a powerful lonesome end...
