Calvin Vollrath - The Story Behind the Tunes

By: Calvin Vollrath
  • Summary

  • I've written near 800 tunes in my 52 years of fiddling and have recorded 71 albums to date. Each tune has a story and I'm here to tell you those stories. When covid-19 hit, our performing life came to a crashing halt but when I was out performing, my shows were filled with stories of my tunes. So now we look for a new way to promote the music and old Cal is doing a podcast.

This is the last episode of the Story Behind the Tunes, for now. I've done told all my stories of my tunes and now I need to get out of this pandemic and go write me some new tunes, that will undoubtedly have some stories. So until then......

    Also I have a new video show called 'Calvin Vollrath's Fiddle Jubilee' which is hosted on YouTube. The 1st episode premiered on March 6th, 2022 at 2pm (MST) GMT-0700. (1st Sunday of each month).

    Future episodes will be released on the 1st Sunday of each month at 2pm (MDT). I'm really proud of this new venture where I'm actually playing music with special guests and you get to watch us..... Tell all your friends about it.

    It would be greatly appreciated if you enjoyed this episode, to go to my website and have a look at my CDs, MP3 downloads, sheet music and so much more. I'm trying to keep the wolf away from the door and any sales do help. Thank you. www.calvinvollrath.com
