Alice Bradley & Lyle de Vitry - "Pretty Saro" - OHPR

Once a year you can find OHPR and our group of pals camping out in the piedmont of North Carolina for a sunny September fiddle festival called Hoppin’ John. The woods fill up with tents, tarps, and tunes and great fun is had by all who attend. There are contests, workshops, and tons of jamming as friends and soon to be friends gather from all over the country.

This year we had a prime location in the woods and brought out the equipment to make a recording. Our dear pals Alice Bradley and Lyle de Vitry decided to take this opportunity to debut their version of an old English folk ballad called “Pretty Saro.” This haunting version of the tune is in a strange tuning and unique to this musical pair whom we love so much!
