Saline Fiddlers Recording a New Album for April 2022 Release

We are looking forward to the release of our full-length biennial album called “All Together Now.” During the height of the pandemic, three small groups worked virtually and in person on their own selected pieces. Students practiced and arranged these tunes specifically for the album when they could be ‘together again.’ These tracks include Calypso Jam, Roadhouse Set, Before I Go, and Devil Went Down to Georgia. The album will be released in time for our April 9, 2022 Hometown Show.”
