In general I can put on two types of solo performances: 1) a demonstration of certain types of traditional music or 2) sets of original songs broken up by instrumental music (fiddle or mandolin). I am in central Pennsylvania and can travel various distances depending on circumstances. I occasionally travel between central PA and Atlanta.

I will eventually put up a formal calendar, but for now, here is a list of festivals I attend under ideal circumstances:

Mt. Airy Fiddlers Convention (first week in June)

Maury River Fiddlers Convention (mid June)

West Virginia State Folk Festival (late June)

Grayson County Fiddlers Convention (aka Elk Creek) (late June)

Appalachian String Band Music Festival (aka Clifftop) (late July/early August)

Rockbridge Mountain Music and Dance Festival (mid to late September)

. . . and possibly others. Here is an excellent list of old-time music festivals in the Appalachian region:
