  • Summary

  • Today we’ll hear from Dave Bing, the fiddle-playing brother of the old-time band, The Bing Brothers. We interviewed Mike Bing, the mandolin-playing brother, on an earlier podcast episode. But today, we focus on Dave. Like all the musicians who’ve played for the story sessions, Dave came to the Opera House to bow a little for us and tell stories. Still, Dave has such an immense library of tunes stored in his mind that we did have to take a few breaks — So bear with us as we chat both on stage and off with Dave in this story session. Dave shares tales of the old-time music family, the Hammons, and we chat about how Irish and Scottish tunes have influenced his playing and the dynamic tradition of passing down tunes in person. Our conversation wanders, much like the Williams River, which lured Dave’s father to Pocahontas country when Dave was just three years old. The three boys and their dad would camp on the Williams, known for trout fishing.
