NEWS: FiddleSticker Rebecca will be moving to Japan for an LDS mission in
July. So these July concerts will be our last performances with her for a
while. Also, Mark (the dad) will be getting married to Andrea Pitcher in
July, so maybe the FiddleSticks sound will soon feature Andrea's hammer
dulcimer as well!
