 Happy autumn to all our friends, family and music listeners.

We are having a fall break from live shows for a few weeks due to some "senior" matters, but have a few bookings already, starting later this month and into winter.


Our recent afternoon concert at the Hillyard Community Center was really a nice gathering.  We celebrated the end of summer and enjoyed birthday party goodies with the folks.

At the end of our show they presented us with a Community Hero award * for our support during the recent Spokane Fires.  Really, all we did was volunteer to entertain the folks, but it's always nice to be noticed.   (Photo below)

We love how our city comes together to help others during these difficult times.


Our latest YouTube video went up a couple weeks ago and had a nice little bump in viewer count.  It had 500 views in the first couple days, and over 1,400 so far.  We wish we knew what brought on the interest, as most of our videos haven't topped a couple hundred views.

The new video was our first attempt with a multi-camera edit. We used our two cell phone cameras plus Doug's mini Zoom recorder, and had to sync-up all the clips.  The new video, a basement music room version of the Civil War spiritual, Wayfaring Stranger ** is just below.

Several of our short (one song) videos are right here on our VIDEO page.  We show some of our favorites, and have a link to our full YouTube page


Another new production is our Evening on the Patio concert video.

For the third year now, Holman Gardens retirement in Spokane Valley invited us to play an evening show on the patio in front of their beautiful garden. We put a camera on a tripod and linked-in the Zoom recorder to capture the evening. 

The result is a very nice, hour-long video, which we've put onto DVDs.  We'll be bringing free copies to our next few shows, but if you'd like one, please leave us a note on our  CONTACT US  page and we'll mail you a copy for NO charge.  Really.  Just include your mailing address.


Please click on our  RECORDINGS  page to listen or download our music.  We offer free access to several albums, including our latest release.  These are high-quality, low-loss music files and sound really good.  Our "Classics" studio album, and several other live shows are also available.
