The Scott Woods Show - Swingin’ Fiddles is making its way across Canada and will be stopping at the Stampede Barn on May 24.
Multiple winner of the Canadian Open and Grand Masters Fiddle Contests, Woods and his band bring alive the music of the 30’s, 40’s and 50’s in this two hour uplifting old time show.
Woods hails from Fergus Ontario and is a sixth generation fiddler. He was the musical director and played the part of Don Messer in Memories of Don Messer’s Jubilee that toured extensively throughout Canada for eight years. He now travels across the country continuing his own family tradition of old time music started by his father & The Merv Woods Orchestra back in 1950. Scott’s mother Carolyn still plays piano and travels with the band today.
Swingin’ Fiddles features not one, not two but three fiddlers playing together in harmony. Western swing, big band, pop standards, country, gospel and plenty of old time fiddling pack the program. Sensational step dancing, home spun family humour and of course Scott’s famous trick fiddling that earned him the Canadian Novelty Fiddle Championship title and ‘The Flippin’ Fiddler’ nickname make this a show you don’t want to miss!
