Texas style fiddling at Old Time Fiddlers Contest in Wimberley
On October 21 the Wimberley Institute of Cultures hosts an Old Time Fiddlers Contest behind Cypress Creek Cafe from 11 to 3. Texas style, rooted in Irish and Celtic tunes, features multiple age divisions, a guitar accompanist division, and a grand champion after interdivisional play offs. Judges value precise timing and a distinctive personal feel. The event, sanctioned by the Old Time Texas Fiddlers Association, includes Harvest Ball, walking tours, local music, and a barbecue sauce cook-off.
