World Fiddle Day lands on May 17th this year!
Look to see what festivities are happening in YOUR neck of the woods!
I haven't checked Michigan, yet... still in no shape to go anywhere at the moment.
There's a big festival in County Kerry, Ireland (Scartaglin) - be great if you get a chance to immerse yourself in Sliabh Luachra fiddling tradition!
