Coffee House Jamming part 2

Somebody asked us about our singing Saturday night...

What kind of coffee house is this?? What kind of music do you sing?

This is the Barnabas Christian CoffeeHouse in Chippewa Falls. Situated in the heart of Chippewa Falls, it reaches out to the needy, and those seeking for more than what the bars have to offer.

Our music is Southern Gospel mixed with Bluegrass. You couldn’t call us professionals since we seem to take our living room and it’s atmosphere up on stage with us. I’m not sure if we could play or sing a song the same way twice. Though Dad did make a list of songs to sing and play, it was more like jamming up there than anything, especially when the list was forgotten as the audience started hollering out their favorites.

I guess a video clip would be just the thing to give you a chance to hear us. Wouldn’t you know, the rousing rendition of "At Calvary" starring Toby Nelson on the harmonica was documented in movie format.



Right to left:
Toby: harmonica
Hannah: mandolin
Courtney: piano
Landon (entering for the final ending): tambourine
Zack: percussion
Dad: acoustic electric guitar
Levi: bass guitar

Great music. I wish my husband and I could have been there. It sounded great!

I am Connie just visiting from Texas by way of Happymama's blog. I find we like many of the same things.
