I LOVE to play mandolin. I will play
mando with anyone, anytime, anywhere. I love it so much, that I
have earned the monikers "Mando Slut" and
"Mandolaney".

made by AIDA and the tuning of a mandolin (from low to
high) is G-D-A-E. G'DAE is pronounced
"g'day".)

- I was honored to be asked to play a song on mandolin
with the amazing Guy Davis (www.guydavis.com) at the Boston Folk
Festival this past weekend. Guy is so special and gracious. I love
him!

Unfortunately my Mando Slut page on myspace: www.myspace.com/MandoSlut has
been taken offline. I guess the "Slut" moniker was offensive to
someone.)
