Happy New Year to you all! Marsh and I had a great time playing Christmas music, but we're very glad to be back to our regular repertoire. Lucy has vowed to write some new songs this year; Marshall is continuing to expand his repertoire, working on some new fiddle tunes and some new ragtime tunes. On a personal note, Marsh and I got engaged just before Christmas. No date set yet, but we plan to have a big open potluck party and jam to celebrate when the weather is warmer. We received a call to play in Simpsonville the other day, so for those of you asking when we'll be playing locally again, it will be on Saturday, January 31st! The Wingate Restaurant is now offering music on Saturday nights, and is hoping to expand to Fridays soon, too. Wingate Restaurant offers many menu choices from roasted turkey with all the trimmings to shrimp, cod, burgers, and BBQ. We'll be back at the Village Cup in Laurens on February 7 and March 14. The latter show will be a show in honor of St. Patrick's Day and will feature our selection of irish & celtic tunes. On February 13, we will be back with our friends at the WKBC Hometown Opry in North Wilkesboro. We hope to see as many as you as possible sometime soon!
