Booking Fiddlers

From country and western to Celtic, fiddlers have one goal: To get toes tappin'! A fiddle is a violin that is used to play folk, country, western, bluegrass, Cajun, Celtic or other styles of music. Traditionally, a standard violin would provide a more classical style of music. The instrument itself doesn't change, rather it takes on a new personality depending on the violinist or fiddler. In America, a solo fiddle is typical. However, in Ireland, Scandinavian and other parts of the world, twin or double fiddles are common. Practically all fiddle music has a driven beat designed to get people on the dance floor. Because fiddlers take up little space, they are easy to incorporate into practically any stage presence. They are also mobile and can roam a crowd if need be. It's easy to find fiddlers or a fiddle ensemble in your local area on GigMasters.

3. Book early. A great fiddler might need to be booked 3 to 6 months in advance.

4. Get a contract and read it carefully. Most professional fiddlers will also require a deposit in order to secure them.

5. Follow up with your fiddler as often as you need to. Don't be shy about making sure your fiddler knows exactly what type of entertainment you want!
