History
|
Peg and Pat have been performing together since their kindergarten days back
on the East Side of St. Paul, where they first collaborated on the
unforgettable reading of "I'm a Little Teapot." John and Pat met in high school,
and their musical abilities grew several years later when they began sitting
around John's basement playing 'Battle of the Flaming Leads.' They asked Peg to
start singing with them because she had a nice voice, a great ear for harmony,
and knew lots of people who needed music at their weddings. Brian and Pat
became relatives and friends in the late 60s, but Brian didn't join the group
for quite some time because, well, he was just too short and was't all that
interested in guitar yet. But, as you'll see when you hear Spruce Top, he
caught up -- and then some. Now the four have woven their wide range of musical
interests and skills into a repertoire and performance style that just invites
you to sit, relax and be stimulated (simultaneously -- honest!);the way
you'd respond to an engaging conversation or terrific book. You can let the
harmony, the stories, and the putzing around just take your stressed out soul
on a little trip to someplace comfortable and interesting. One does what one
can.
