Jon Andrew Franklin – Ballard Farmers Market\u00a0 –\u00a0 March 23, 2025<\/p>\n
Franklin is an energetic performer who’s got all of the bases covered: the fiddling, the singing, the rig, the pedals, the stickers, the patter.\u00a0 He was undeterred by some inclement weather that might have kept other buskers away, and was thereby able to extend his set to accommodate my listening schedule.\u00a0 To account for his meteorological indifference, he gave a description of the differences between wood and carbon fiber fiddles that drew approval from an attending engineer!\u00a0 I had seen Franklin perform during an earlier market visit; this time I was prepared to sketch, and had even purchased enough jars of Nils Magic Kimchee (Stone Soup Kitchen) to leave one as a tip.<\/p>\n
