Our Extended Musical Family
Some proximal threads of our far-flung network:
We play with a host of other musicians throughout the state—they keep us vital and build confidence, and playing with these people is, frankly, the most fun you can have standing up. It is a loose confederation of kindred spirits that occurs in a variety of permutations. Sometimes we do gigs or record together, with them onstage with us, or vice versa, but often we just play for the love of making music in living rooms, in campsites at festivals, or on the street busking. This kind of musical collaboration and celebration we consider to be the soul of America.
We would like to pay homage to:
The Previously Lost Dogs (Santa Cruz Mountains) - Folk Fusion: Mostly acoustic originals, modern Americana and improvisational jamming.
Jeff Hunter - The resident wordsmith and founder of the group, great songwriter and guitarist
Jack Grossi - Bass player extraordinaire – on guitarron, electric and stand-up bass
Mike Brown - Vocals, keyboards and guitars
Randy Hudson - Mandolin
Lynn Douglass (Deceased) - Our own “Violynn”—she continues to inspire us (obituary)
Woody Moise - Songwriting, guitar, vocals
Jim Bobisuthi - Harmonica
