They are offered for purely educational purposes nothing is for sale. We decided to post them on our website because we think they might be useful for beginning and intermediate level flatpickers and mandolin players. These are not definitive versions, the arrangements are just the way we play the tunes. These are the tunes we play or hope to learn over time. Most of the tunes on this page were arranged by Mike and/or Kim for flatpicked guitar and mandolin. We primarily play traditional fiddle tunes, Bluegrass, Old-time, and a little Celtic and Blues. We are Mike Stangeland and Kim Davis and we both play guitar and Mike plays mandolin.
