    It may not mean anything to those of the younger generation, but I, personally, have sat through many of their performances~some I have been acquainted with for 12 years or more, and I can say that it brings back sweet memories of songs my dad use to sing to us when we were young. I appreciate their love for the music, the art and their desire to keep it alive and share with those who have a special place in their heart for music from our past…music that touches the ‘heart ‘ from a simplier time.

    The word dulcimer and jam session should never be used in the same sentence.
