Not a player? Come on out and and enjoy the music -- you'd be hard-pressed to find a nicer group of musicians anywhere. The music is lively and the price is right.
To get you in the mood: Fiddle great Jana Jae (formerly of Redding and instrumental in establishing the fine fiddling tradition here in the North State) takes a ride on the Orange Blossom Special
