Jerry Holland

2003


Jerry Holland is a greatly-respected Cape Breton fiddler deeply rooted in the fiddle traditions of Ireland and Scotland. He has written some fine tunes which are played by musicians the world over, and his recordings are a must for the fiddle enthusiast.

Jerry was diagnosed with cancer, which has severely limited his ability to perform in concert, and he is now embarking on a chemotherapy programme that is causing great financial hardship at what is a most difficult time.

Stolen Instruments

Tommy Peoples' Fiddle Stolen
Camden, London
September 11, 2009

The fiddle was stolen out of a parked car which was parked about 200 yards from The Corner House Hotel, 201 Camden Rd., London, NW1 9AA. It was taken in the early hours of Friday morning, September 11, 2009.  It was in a black rectangular composite case. In the inside pocket of the case were two St Martin relics/medallions, a red glass heart, two D'Addario strings and a box set of Helicore strings.  The fiddle has a split or crack between the E and A tuning pegs. It also has an unusual brown composite chin rest, which you can see in the picture.



Also some CDs were taken as well.
