Breakwater Boys' Breakdown by Émile Benoît - Devon's Tune of the Day 052

La Famille Léger is going on the road this weekend, playing Lincoln Rock State Park in East Wenatchee tonight and Lake Wenatchee State Park tomorrow in Leavenworth! Here's a great tune we're bringing along: "Breakwater Boys' Breakdown" from the great Newfoundland Acadian fiddler and tune composer Émile Benoît. We'd like to dedicate this to Émile's son Jim Benoît who left a nice comment on our last Émile Benoît tune video that he thinks his dad would be proud of how we're playing his tunes. That was nice to hear! My dad joins Dejah and I on this one on the spoons! He used to be the world champion spoons player (back before there were championships)!
