Fiddle player from Tacoma, Washington, USA
Been playing for a while and hope to keep playing quite a while longer. I like playing polkas and slides for set dances and I hope to get a regular set dance going in my kitchen.
I am still John Culhane, but, since I moved to Tacoma, tacoman seems more appropriate.
