(PRWeb) January 2, 2007 -- Having partnered with Canadian cartoon artist Bob Jadis (http://fiddlefork.com/jadis.php), FiddleFork Online has developed an original cartoon series directed towards fiddle players and violinists. The weekly series includes single frame "FiddleFork Funnies" in which imaginary characters are depicted in humorous fiddle and violin situations.When asked about the new partnership Jadis said "I am thrilled and honoured to be a part of this new project. I've been a musician and cartoonist most of my life and blending my two passions into one with FiddleFork is very exciting for me."
What's even more exciting is what Bob Jadis and FiddleFork are working on next. During the early half of 2007 FiddleFork Online will unveil it's very own proprietary character, appropriately named "FiddleFork Freddie"! FiddleFork Freddie will be featured in a weekly 3-frame cartoon story line. Kids and families alike will be able to follow the life and times of Freddie as he travels through his fiddling boyhood. Along with FiddleFork Freddie will be his trusted companion pet dog, to whom a name has yet to be found. In fact, throughout the first half of 2007 Internet visitors will be encouraged to vote on the website and submit their preferred name for FiddleFork Freddie's dog. Yes, by the end of 2007 FiddleFork Freddie's dog will have a name chosen by popular global demand!
When contacted for an interview, Mike McGee, President of FiddleFork Online, was equally as excited. "I remember reading the cartons when I was young in the newspapers that my Dad used to bring home. I, like many people, enjoyed the short story lines and the funny situations. Today we have taken that concept and have added a musical theme and our own FiddleFork characters to a global audience. Now who could not be excited about that? I certain am." This is a considerable advancement for a niche online community devoted exclusive promotion and exchange of fiddle music. It is amazing to see how many people around the world enjoy fiddle music and show their appreciation by joining together in such a vibrant online community. "How times have changed." McGee went on to say "We have built a website that has taken on a life of its own whereby through online activities people meet each other, become friends, share music and embrace the passion of fiddle music together."
