Dinah is her name, two years younger than me and 5 years older than the twins. She plays a bit, mainly stand up bass with her kids.
Sisters?
Oh cool, I didnât know the twins were that much younger than you:sunglasses:
Hi @BanjoBen you really need to get the whole family together and video record a little jam session. How about a bunch of Christmas tunes that would be awesome.
Be sure to include the kids the more the merrier Ding Dong Merrilee on High the Clark Family are all singing
How do you get emojis to work? Mine just do this:yum:
You need a space after the text
Ok thanks
I bet she has had to contend with every possible joke variation involving her in the kitchen with someone strumminâ on the old banjo.
Okay, @BanjoBen, ive got three more questions two on topic one off. First, what instruments do each of the twins play? Second, did the purple hulls ever have more band members or just the three (and now two.)? Third, I heard Robbie Boone works at the general store; does he frequent the forum?
Right now theyâre playing my Huber, a Northfield F-5S, and an HD-28. Just bass players in the rotation is all. Robby does, but he is not on the forumâŚyet!
Ok cool, my first question was not what specific models they play, I meant which ones can they play, (e.g. mando, guitar, etc.) So?
Katy plays guitar, banjo, accordion, and piano mainly. Penny mainly plays guitar and mandolin.
Ok cool, i want to learn accordionâŚ
So, who plays fiddle and dobro?
Stuart Duncan and Rob Ickes!
Ok, so, more than just bass players isnât Stuart Duncan pretty famous?
Kinda famous, I have heard of him.
Marty played this live at our show in Brighton Michigan - as Iâm sure he does at most every show he performs! Our version was just Marty - doinâ a killer swinginâ Mando Solo!
That alone was worth the price of admission!
Marty = Living Legend
Thank you Archie!
Katy and Penny have played the stage of the âLibrary of Congressâ, about four years ago! They were the incredible backup players to âThe Quebe Sisters Bandâ. I was on the YouTube site for the âVeterans History Projectâ where additional thumbnail images are listed to the right. There were three short blondes and two tall redheads, shown in the stamp size photo; I knew I had to view after the VHPâs info downloaded. Once on the big screen, there was no doubt about the stunning backup they played; but it took forty-five minutes for them to be introduced; worth the wait! They play âThe Purple Hullsâ song âNo Power in the Waterâ as a duo and are joined by three National Fiddle Champs all; The Quebe Sisters. Top tier performance by all the sisters! I will place separate information on the Veterans History Project.
LOL! The girls are all walking out on stage and 2 mics are set higher than 3 of the girls are tall. Hhhmmm⌠I wonder who will use those mics.
Great stuff! I donât know why Katy and Penny parted ways with the Quebe Sisters, but if I had to guess, it just wasnât the sound for them. I much prefer the sound of The Purple Hulls.
