Fiddler Dave and Michael Stanwood

Brothers from Another Time

Release Date: 2008

Welcome to a new album from Fiddler Dave and Michael Stanwood! Borne of years of musical friendship, this album brings together these two musicians in a wonderful tapestry of song and tunes form the mountains of Colorado to the sandy shores of Ocracoke Island, NC.

What can I say about my friend, David? I'm a lucky man to have been hanging out on the streets of Scotland, when he was playing his fiddle, back in the sixteenth century, and I was waiting for an autoharp to be invented...and then to meet him and Amy in a hostel years later. It has always been such a great joy and so easy to sit down across from him to share music, as well as kick his butt at Yahtzee (only happened once).

~ Michael Stanwood

I couldn’t believe it when Michael blew the king’s toupee off with a blast from his digeridoo! Michael claimed that it was a blessing from Tibet, but the His Royalness never did see eye to eye with musicians. After his banishment, Michael spent the rest of his days wandering the moors of the Isles spooking the countryfolk on misty nights with his talents. I would sneak out and meet him for tunes until one night I fell in a bog. You can imagine my surprise when he showed up hundreds of years later on Ocracoke Island!

~ Fiddler Dave Tweedie
