This video was shot at a notloB Music concert in JP.
"Darol Anger (fiddle), Sharon Gilchrist (mandolin) and Emy Phelps (guitar) perform the classic fiddle tune "Cherokee Shuffle." For more information on this tune and its roots, visit http://secondcousincurly.com. This recording is from an April 2012 concert at the Loring-Greenough House in Jamaica Plain, MA. Thanks to Jeff Boudreau and notloB Concerts for making this event happen. More on notloB at http://sites.google.com/site/notlobmusic".
