Howard Marshall

A little-dixie style fiddler from Millersburg, Missouri, Dr. Howard Marshall has been devoted to conserving, studying, and carrying on traditional fiddle music. He is from a pioneer Randolph County family and is a retired University of Missouri professor of art history. He has played fiddle since the late 1960s and focuses on music he inherited from mentors such as Art Galbraith, Taylor McBaine, Pete McMahan, and Nile Wilson. Dr. Marshall performs at square dances, festivals, fiddler’s contests, and other venues. Dr. Marshall is also the author of articles on the history of fiddling, produces CDs by Missouri fiddlers for Voyager Records in Seattle, and recently reissued a book and double CD called “Now That’s a Good Tune:” Masters of Traditional Missouri Fiddling. His current writing project is a book on the history of fiddle music in Missouri.
