When I was eight years old I had braces and was showing a cow in 4-H at the county fair.
When Tigar Bell was eight years old he was playing fiddle for Merle Haggard!
It's pretty amazing to me that two people who had such different beginnings would meet in the studio many years later...
I'm so excited that Tigar Bell played fiddle for three songs on my new album, Stories Behind Songs. He's got the best tone I've ever heard and is a humble guy too. In addition to Merle, he has worked with some amazing artists such as Ricky Van Shelton, Travis Tritt, Collin Raye and Pam Tillis.
