INDIAN CREEK. Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, Tenn. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBCCDECC. "Originated with the Stringer Brothers, in Humphreys County (Tenn.) about 1920. The Stringers learned it from another West Tennessee fiddler who called it 'Band Piece' because he got it off an old phonograph recording of it played by a brass band. The Stringers modified it. Arthur (Smith) modified it still more and named it 'Indian Creek' in honor of the road the Stringers lived on near McEwen (Tenn.)" {Charles Wolfe and Barry Poss}.
