Uncle Butch, sawyer

Hi.  I'm Uncle Butch and I've been a sawyer (saw player) for about 25 years.  I teach the craft at Southern California folk festivals and events.  I will use this site to let you know where and when I will be teaching and/or playing.  If you are interested in learning to play the saw and do not find a venue convenient to you, please contact me on my cell phone: (909) 437-5336, or email me at mailto:unclebutch@hibben.org .
 
If you are interested in coming to a meeting of the Riverside Folk Song Society, where I frequently attend and add saw to the mix of music, click on the link above.

The saw is not for everyone, but that's what makes it such a fun instrument - playing the saw definitely makes the sawyer (saw player) a unique addition to a jam session, a concert, or an impromptu gathering of musicians.  Some of my philosophies of saw playing are included on this site, as are some tips for choosing a saw for the purposes of making music.
