Some songs are born great -- others take 30 years to come together! The chorus of the widely beloved hit bluegrass song Wagon Wheel was originally recorded as a Bob Dylan bootleg in 1973. After hearing this recording, Ketch Secor of the band Old Crow Medicine Show wrote new verses in 2003 and used Dylan's melody to create a full-blown country song. And the rest is history! Wagon Wheel has since been certified platinum and covered by a number of other notable artists, and has even been called the Free Bird of the new generation -- so you can't go wrong adding this one to your gig books! Featuring the catchy choruses, danceable feel, and country fiddle interludes of the original, this Cellobat chart for your string quartet is sure to get your audience singing along. Overall, this is an intermediate-level arrangement, but I'm rating it advanced-intermediate for some tricky rhythms and high notes (up to 4th position) in the violin parts; this will be learnable for students and sightreadable for professionals.
