Doug Wallin

Doug Wallin was a ballad singer and fiddler from Madison County, North Carolina. Both of Wallin's parents, father Lee and mother Berzilla, were singers; Lee also played the fiddle and banjo and Doug's younger brother Jack plays banjo, fiddle, and guitar. Doug's song selection and style respectfully reflected the Wallins' long family heritage. His singing was unusually refined, characteristically rendered with subtlety, precision, and a quiet passion.
