Athens, AL – Mr. Bill Jones, from Covington, Georgia, was named “Alabama State Fiddle Champion” at the 52nd annual Tennessee Valley Old Time Fiddlers Convention held at Athens State University Saturday night.

Jones won the title by winning...


... the “fiddle off,” which pits the top fiddlers from the junior, intermediate, and senior divisions, earning the Convention’s top prize of $1,200. Tyler Andal, from Nashville, Tennessee, finished runner-up.
