Members near Chico, California

From the first post on the site. “I wonder if there’s anybody who remembers The Session’s humble beginnings? The site started as a small collection of tunes on a free host. Later, the site moved to my own web space.

I live in Chico, California, love to sing, play guitar and 5 string banjo. I’ve been playing bluegrass as I’m learning banjo, and have focused on fiddle tunes for the past two years.

Scottish born, I picked up my first guitar at age 17.

Chico,California……B/C,C#/D boxes,piano,guitar

I was an accordion player in my early teens in 1956-58. but lost my accordion and music in the Paradise fire. I had just taken up the instrument when all was lost.

From northern California, USA. Play flute and whistle. The flute is a WD Sweet “Shannon”, and I love it. I make my whistles out of hobbyist brass tubing, and put a quena mouthpiece on them. So, I suppose I really should not call them “whistles”.

Growing up, I played the drums, but tried the shift to violin in college. I’m still working on that, these many years later. I now make violins in a shop in Chico, CA.
