Colorado Old Time Fiddlers’ Association

Welcome! The Colorado Old Time Fiddlers’ Association (COTFA) is dedicated to fiddling of all kinds, with a special emphasis on contest (Texas Style) fiddling. We produce contests across Colorado, culminating in the Colorado Fiddle Championships at the National Western Stock Show, and provide workshops and other helpful programs for aspiring and veteran fiddlers in the Rocky Mountain Empire.

The 11th annual Colorado Fiddle Championships at the National Western Stock Show were once again a tremendous success.  Luke Price of Portland, Oregon was Grand Champion and Anthony Mature of New Waverly, Texas appeared onstage more than 95 times to become our Favorite Accompanist again this year.  To see all the results, please click HERE.
