Grondeuse à Wilfred - Devon's Tune of the Day 051

Here's a much loved tune from yesterday's source, Vermont Franco-American fiddler Wilfred Guillette. His "Grondeuse à Wilfred" has been recorded a lot because it's just so weird. He really hangs on the notes for an unusual length of time. He tunes his fiddle to the "grondeuse" tuning of ADAE, so I do that too here. Gotta do the foot percussion, or podorythmie too, that's necessary. This tune is a favorite in my family for sure, and I hope you'll like it too!
My wife, Dejah Leger, joins me on this one and we'll be playing together with my dad as La Famille Léger this weekend near Leavenworth, WA. We're playing Lincoln Rock State Park the evening of July 5 and Lake Wenatchee State Park the evening of July 6! Check my brand new website for info:
