While Steve and I met each other only minutes before pressing "record", Erin Mae Lewis and I have been friends for more than 10 years. For the past several years she has been working as a professional musician, travelling across the country taking her gift of song to people from all walks of life, inviting them into the little known world of the Mountain Dulcimer. Steve and Erin were in Denver doing shows together and were gracious enough to stop by my office for a chat. I had a blast weaving together seemingly separated strands into one conversation that was a true gift to me. I know you'll enjoy it too. Thanks for listening.
