A lot has happened in the past year, and then again, things have been put on hold, cancelled or postponed.  This year has thrown a lot at us here in Washington state, and across our country.  With the wild fires up and down the west coast, the covid-19  pandemic, the unrest across the rest of the country.  All these things have created a bleak outlook for some of us.

But, I encourage each of you to hold true to yourself and your music. There are better days coming.

Music is the one constant that we can all rely on.  During the Great Depression, old time music flourished across the country.  According to many who lived through the Depression, you can’t be sad and dance at the same time. Music and dancing made people forget the hardships of daily life.

Our music is the one thing that we can do to help others through these rough waters.  It is time we revisited the days of past, with front porch jams, and small gatherings of friends and family, all while practicing “Social Distancing”.  We will be back together soon, sharing our music and stories.

Looking forward to 2021.
