It was in 2007 at the Mandolin Symposium in Santa Cruz, California that we first met. We had known about each other, had each other's recordings and admired each other's playing, but we had not yet met formally. On our first recording, we were simply trying to find common musical ground with an appreciation for Bach, Brazilian, Bulgarian and Bluegrass music. Our second CD dove into the heart of our favorite composer Johann Sebastian Bach. Third Journey represents the natural settling that has occurred after years of playing and sharing a life together with the bulk of the material culled from mostly American musical forays with a bit of Bach and Brazil tossed in just because we couldn't help ourselves. We hope you enjoy our Third Journey.
