McFadden was an excellent fiddler with an stiff, ideosyncratic style, perhaps learned from his father and brother, who also played. Nevertheless, he was an inspired fiddler who learned his entire repertoire by ear and was skilled at impromptu variation sets. He typically 'never played a tune the same way twice'. He also composed tunes, several of which are in the O'Neill collections. McFadden was well-regarded in the city, although he was known (and somewhat feared) as a practical joker (See O'Neill, '''Irish Minstrels''', pp. 296-397).
