Casey Driessen’s Fiddle/Sticks: Encounter 1 [Feat. Kenny Malone]

“I’ve been playing fiddle since I was five years old, and I never wanted to play it like anybody else.“ - Casey Driessen, fiddler “I’ve been caught in a groove before where you can’t get out of just have to ride it as long as it lasts.“ - Kenny Malone, drummer Fiddle/Sticks is a collaborative exploration of rhythm which pairs GRAMMY nominated fiddler Casey Driessen -- the leading voice in percussive fiddle/violin technique (AKA The Chop) -- with a list of the landmark drummers and percussionists of our time. Cutting across all genres and traditions, the project documents these rhythmic explorations through recordings, videos, photos and journals. It serves as an inspirational and instructional resource for drummers, percussionists, fiddlers and everyone in the music community interested in pushing the boundaries of their instruments and their music. The first video from Fiddle/Sticks features celebrated Nashville session player Kenny Malone
