Yeah, it starts slow, but stick with it. It's another simple, stirring old hymn. Known sometimes as 'Tis a Gift to be Simple', or just 'the Shaker Hymn'.

Artist picture
Mostly 12 string guitar and vocals. A longtime folk singer performing the act that's kept him out of the bigtime for years.
I began my musical career in the 70's, playing trumpet and guitar, and singing. This site contains mostly that act, which has kept me out of the big time all these years. I played full-time professionally for eight years, until I realized I preferred my meals .... you know, .... daily.

Story behind the song
This is my own arrangement of a song I've loved since I first heard it in Aaron Copeland's "Appalachian Spring".
