BRUSHY RUN. Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, West Virginia. G Major. Standard (Art Stamper) or DGdg (Harvey Sampson) tunings (fiddle). AB. Clay County, West Virginia, fiddler Wilson Douglas identifies the locale of this tune as "over beyond Widen. It was just a big holler, with so much underbrush--some old fiddler was bacheloring there and he just composed this and he called it the 'Brushy Run.' Just a bushy ravine, so to speak. (French) Carpenter could really play that. Where these young fiddlers get lost is in the bowing over the high part. You do it with the bow. You don't do it with the notes at all!" (interview with Nancy McClellan). According to Kerry Blech, Ward Jarvis learned the tune from eastern Kentucky fiddler Ed Haley, and that Jarvis played it in standard tuning.
