Fiddle Away

Some of you know me as the "Singing" Realtor. But, did you know that my first musical instrument was the violin? Yes, I played that fiddle 'til the blisters became callouses AND I could never have fingernails. When I went to music camp, though, on solo night when everyone played their instruments, I put my violin aside and played my vocal chords instead. Every summer at camp I'd get the Tweetie Bird award!

OK - so enough about my singing and back to the fiddling! Tomorrow night (April 28th) at 8:00pm there will be a performance at the Coffee Gallery down the street from me. The performers will be the Quebe Sisters and they are National Champion fiddlers, Grace, Sophia and Hulda Quebe who will be performing with World Champion fiddler Joey McCenzie and bassist Drew Phelps. Drew plays the upright bass, not the kind that you swing around your shoulder!

The Coffee Gallery is located at 2029 Lake Avenue in Altadena and the cost is $20. For more information you can go to 626/398-7917 or www.coffeegallery.com

See, you don't always have to go 2 miles south to Pasadena to enjoy good quality music! And you don't have to pay $5 to $7 for parking, either!
