Welcome to Get Up in the Cool: Old Time Music with Cameron DeWhitt and Friends! This week’s friend is Kilby Spencer, and he’s kind of my new favorite fiddler. I wasn’t able to fully enjoy his fiddling while playing with him, because I was really concentrated on trying keep up, and not make a fool out of myself. But I just finished editing our interview and jam, and my jaw was on the floor the whole time. Kilby’s awesome. And, the best part is, I didn’t even get a chance to be intimidated, because he’s one of the nicest, most hospitable people I’ve met in my travels. He let me crash at his house, threw a bunch of amazing musicians with awesome stories in front of my microphones, and fed me all the fried chicken I could eat. Five Stars, would do business again. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that Kilby’s a kind and generous person and a fantastic fiddler. His story’s full of gratitude and humility; because he came to this music more honestly than most of us do, and I think that understanding of what he’s doing, why he’s doing it, and where it all came from, is apparent in his playing and living. I learned a lot playing with him, and I had blast. I’m so glad I got some of it on tape so you all could catch a glimpse.  Stick around after the interview for details on how to hear more of Kilby’s music and how to support Get Up in the Cool and get access to exclusive bonus content.  Tunes we’ll play: Richmond Lafayette Nancy Blevins Old Sport Lost Train Blues Katy Did Bonus Track: Say Old Man Can You Play the Fiddle Buy Always Been a Rambler: https://thecrookedroadramblers.bandcamp.com/  Buy albums from the Field Recorders' Collective: https://fieldrecorder.bandcamp.com/ Support Get Up in the Cool on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/getupinthecool  Buy Get Up in the Cool vol. 1: https://camerondewhitt.bandcamp.com/Support Get Up in the Cool
