The trio got together as teachers asked to sing a song at their school cabaret. Mike played the standup bass, Ed played guitar, and Guy played mandolin and guitar. So their first public performance song was Sharecropper's Dream by the Nitty-Gritty Dirt Band. It went over so well the group hasn't looked back since... doing shows for schools, parishes, Legion halls, coach tours, cruise ships and national/international conventions, etc. They were even invited to a festival in Seoul Korea where they sang all about the culture and traditions of the province. They later represented Newfoundland and Labrador at the International Festival of the Sea in Bristol, England. Their music is a work of art to them... vivid lyrics, meaningful local themes, and yet still lots of up-tempo life in a natural trio kind of sound. |
