Fiddle & Bow incorporated and began live concerts as well as its highly rated WFDD radio program in 1981.

They have also presented blues artists Etta Baker and Guitar Gabriel in addition to legendary instrumentalists Joe and Odell Thompson, The Carolina Chocolate Drops and Tommy Jarrell.
While the pandemic limited activities over the past few years, Fiddle & Bow is excited to return to live shows and a celebration with Reynolda House. The relationship with Reynolda House started in the late 1980s and culminated in several festivals throughout the 2000s. Fiddle & Bow is excited to return to Reynolda house for this upcoming celebration.
