I started playing music as a child with piano and violin lessons. My mother had to make me practice. Then my brother joined the navy and left his Fender Jaguar and amp behind. I picked it up and fell in love at the age of 12. He got me my own guitar for my 13th birthday and the rest is history.
I slowed down but never quit. For about 20 years, I raised kids and kept a roof over our heads. Then I picked it up again with renewed passion.
Sometime in the early eighties I found the songbook "English Romantic Songs and Ballads’ for guitar and voice. I started playing some of them immediately and soon found that they were different enough from the normal fare to attract attention and applause, even occasional encores, from listeners looking for something different. When the Dew is on the Grass and Come where the Aspens Quiver are two of these songs and I will put some more in later it interest warrents. I have kept these beautiful, light and appealing songs in my repertoire. My musical choices range far and wide, from Dowland to Dylan, The Stones to Jewel, Folk, Blues,Country, Classical and beyond.
These delightful songs fit right in.
