DAPPLE PATTI - Adam Granger and I have been playing dates together for many years. Dapple Patti is a live recording from 2011 concerts of ours in Minneapolis, Mn. and Madison, Wi. I really love playing music with Adam and the duo format gives me plenty of opportunity to stretch out and play in ways that are somewhat new to me. I love all 17 cuts and the feel of the recording. Hope you do too.

I began the mail order business many years ago but it has been dormant for the last several years. I have decided to get back into the business in a rather small way for now.
The business is truly of the cottage variety. Many of the tab items are self- produced without the aid of a computer, although some are published through Mel Bay and look right nice. I like to say of the self-produced tab, it's in my handwriting but you will learn to love it (that's my hope). Some of the CDs are self-produced (quality, studio produced bluegrass). As I progress and get more time, I will upgrade and blast into the 1990s and get better at computer programs. Until then I hope you find some things that will bring you joy both as a listener and a student of the banjo.
