Current Repertoire as of 12/27/2012


Continuing to sing and play. 2012 has been a glorious year for my  musical adventure. Had lots of musical friends over to celebrate my 55th birthday, and we all sat around in a big circle and sang. Continuing to play at the Perry Hall Folk Music Night once a month, sometimes with Mark Huslage. Continuing to explore all kinds of American music, from old time country to rock, and also delving into the history of American music, with concentration on "roots music". Haven't put up any videos or files lately, but still have the notion to at least post all my songs as files for the future collectors at Library of Congress ;-) and for our kids. Take care.
