I am happy to announce that Beverly Smith and I are working on a new project together. Although we have been friends for many years and have played music informally on occasion, this is our first foray into putting our individual talents into duet singing and playing; working up material and developing a repertoire. We've been having a great time in between broken ankles, chai tea making, and dog duty....putting together some wonderful material from classic old-time duets, original songs, fiddle and banjo instrumentals, brushing up old guitar leads...you name it, we're game. We'll be doing workhops in Spain and touring the United Kingdom in the fall, as well as summer music camps, festivals and concerts. Click here for more our European schedule.
