Jerry Byrd -- Chickadee
Here is Jerry in a Hawaiian setting. He moved to Hawaii about 1970, after a long career playing and producing country music in the mainland. He was deeply interested in Hawaiian music from the start of his career in the late 1930’s, and was prominent in the Hawaiian music scene until his recent passing. I believe the National tricone that he is playing belonged to Pua Almeida, a great Hawaiian performer in the 40’s and 50’s.
