I now live in Cold Spring, Kentucky and after working as a biologist, potter and teacher, have made my living as a musician playing primarily the hammered dulcimer for the last sixteen years, although I also play bluegrass style banjo. I play for a variety of events including weddings, receptions, festivals, parties, concerts, dinners and craft markets and at a variety of venues including schools, churches, bookstores, cafes, museums, parks, art galleries, libraries, historic homes and businesses. I play mostly traditional Appalachian, Celtic and Old Time music and have produced several recordings, all of which are available on this site. I enjoy playing informally among the public, a 'sidewalk musician' as it were, allowing anyone interested an opportunity to try the instrument themselves. My music also works especially well as a gentle background for social gatherings. It provides a relaxing atmosphere and still allows for conversation. I often perform with other musicians as well when the occasion calls for a bigger sound. Other instruments I've recorded with are the flute, fiddle, guitar, pennywhistle, harp and banjo, all of which combine wonderfully with the hammered dulcimer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41015770710113,"sku":"0659696020429","price":11.44,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/944d70a7ad5d1f0067c02f0da7f475a1.jpg?v=1695904012","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/0659696020429-hammered-dulcimer-solos","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
