We all know Merle Haggard’s talent knows no bounds, but did y’all know he can play the fiddle??

In a rare video from many, many years ago, the Hag is seen playing a fiddle like you’ve never seen before, with three other fiddle players. 

While each fiddler is quite talented, one even being a young boy, none are like Merle, who plays with such ease!

Most people know him from strummin’ a guitar and singing classics like “Mama Tried“, “Silver Wings” and “Workin’ Man Blues“, just to name a few, but the 78-year-old country legend is just as good on a fiddle as he is on a guitar.

We wish Merle would whip out his fiddle on his Django and Jimmie Tour with Willie Nelson! 

Take a look at this rare, amazing performance below!
