Bruce Molsky - Lost Boy

Bruce Molsky is at the forefront of reinvigorating some of the unique fiddle styles of the southeastern United States.

There is some wonderful playing on Lost Boy, the album from which this book is drawn. This book provides detailed transcriptions that will give fiddlers an idea of what the great performers do.
