Hi Half Fiddler,
Cape Breton Island has a distinct form of fiddling that may interest you. It is basicly the traditional music of Highland Scotland that was carried here by 18 & 19th century pioneers.
If you type "cape breton fiddle" into the Google search engine it will bring up enough material to keep you busy for some time. You can probably find sound files on some of these sites.
