notes

This the second fiddle Album recording that I have done thru out the years! The first recorded in a basement was a real Cellar! give this one a listen,can be bought right here online "Only from CDBABY"
I've played the fiddle in many bands, Playing back up fiddle, Electric Bass, doing bar gigs, Rodeo Dance's along with timed event's with my friends G & J was the most fun! Meeting all the pro Cowboys. Watching the action first hand from above the shutts. Dance Music and recordings both north & south of the boarder.
Composing my own tunes and putting into recording are a reality come true. The first tune "Shuffle for Vi" is a favorite of mine, composed back in 87 she liked it so much I named it in her honour. And there are a lot more in the bag. I want to thank my many friends I've played with thru the years.I know a lot of great musician's and wish they could'a all played a lick or too on this album.
In this album you'll find a good mixture of fiddle tunes that will set your mood's for the DAY!! Two Stepping, Clogging, Swing, Shuffles, Waltz what ever suits your fancy. Digitly recorded makes for a good "Sound" you'll feel the fiberations down to your toe's!! Recorded at Bear Creek sound Studio. Surrey BC.

Give a listen! Want to thank the Baby Sitters for taking good care of my CD'S

  • My Friend
    author: Floyd Sayese

    I sit here with a heavy heart. After many years of looking for Art I have finally found him, only 2 years too late. I moved from Edmonton in '83. He was my foreman, supervisor and hero. I surely loved this man. Art put together a band (including son Kelly) and played at my wedding. Pure talent. Of course he wasn't playing too much back then. I will always treasure my time with Art. After he left Edmonton I lost touch with him. I heard years later that he moved to Kelowna but after many tries I couldn't locate him. I should have known he would be involved with the Metis. I will always treasure and miss you my Frenchman's Butte friend.

  • A tribute to my brother Art
    author: Thomas Burd

    Since my brother passed on in June, 2006, I have his legacy in this wonderful cd. I am proud that he left us his gift of the fiddle and when I come to cd baby to see what others have said about my dearly departed, I am proud and lonely at the same time. Then I play my cd and listen to the happy lilt of Art's tunes. I feel better to know his music will live on with his cd baby sitters.

  • Innovative Arrangements of Traditional Tunes and Awesome Original Material
    author: Dale McGregor of The McGregor Family

    This album is a lot of fun to listen to. It's a definite must have for your fiddle collection. The traditional tunes are not the same old ole timey arrangements but are nicely arranged in a creative swing style. The new material has a different sound with melodies that are quite melodic and resonant. The Metis tunes are played with the touch of a master Metis fiddler. The fiddle's tone oozes with sweetness and the technique of all the session players is professional and excellent. Well done Art. You've definitely moved from the cellar to the kitchen!

    author: Metis Matters Radio Show- CFRO - 102.7 FM

    Its a good mix that of tunes that we play on the Metis Matters Radio Show on Co-op Radio Vancouver. Our listeners in BC and from across Western Canada on the satellite at Star Choice Channel 845 have responded very favorably to the Metis style fiddling that makes one want to get up and start jigging away. We play it at the Nova Metis Heritage office in Surrey when we want to show others what Metis fiddling is like. Call us for more at the office - 604-634-0119 Ken Fisher - Surrey
