Another lady oldtime fiddler of note(sorry...) is Clelia Stefanini, Rafe's daughter. Here's a couple links, the first one with Rafe and Clelia playing a Nations Brothers tune called "Sales Tax Toddle" and the second of Clelia and Tatiana playing a John Hatcher arrangement of "Grub Springs"...let 'er go...

There's a lot of new oldtime players on the scene that can really carry the mail, but I'm not seeing/hearing a new crop of traditionally based bluegrassers. It's almost as if the culture that spawned it has been left in the weeds and the sound went with it. Sure, it was a hard-assed culture, but there was a lot of good in it too. Hell, things have gotta change I know, it's just a shame that we can't seem to hang onto all the good stuff.
