Playing a traditional folk song from 1850 called “The Blind Fiddler” with Mica Nafshun-Bone & Julian Julian providing double fiddles on The Wildwood Flower Radio Hour!

My dad Hoyt Axton famously covered this song on his album ‘Southbound’ in 1975. We are heading to the last state my dad called home, Montana, this week on the Winter West Tour!

We’ll be in Gallatin Gateway on Friday 3/7 to play The Jump at 8PM. After that we have six more show dates around Montana & a couple in Wyoming.

Check out my pinned post to see all the dates or visit my website mattaxton.com.
