Kessinger Brothers
About the artist
Clark Kessinger (Kanawha County, WV, July 27, 1896 - June 4, 1975) began playing the banjo when he was five years old and two years later he performed at local saloons with his father. He switched to fiddle and began performing at country dances. In 1917, he joined the Navy serving in World War I. Upon his discharge, his reputation as a fiddler had increased and he visited many local fiddling contests. He teamed up with his nephew Luches "Luke" Kessinger (August 21, 1906 in Kanawha County, WV - May 6, 1944) performing at various locations.
