| The Hobart Old Time Stringband is a community music group, evolved from Fred Pribac's Hillbilly Zen classes. It meets weekly and is open to all skill levels. |
| I've noted the key after the tune title. Since this is a round robin format, most fiddles are in standard tuning, GDAE. The Aussie and Tassie tunes work quite well cross tuned, though. |
| These were recorded in early 2008.
