Musicians You May Never Have Heard Of

Frank Vignola and Joe Ascione "The Frank and Joe Show"

check out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQnn7FWKO-A

And Frank doing this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQnn7FWKO-A

As well as their albums "33 1/3" and "66 2/6"
(are you old enough to know what those numbers mean?)

A little classical, a little buzzy-bee: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AInQ0FdAoHk

Frank's version of Tico Tico makes my knees weak: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SF1jx...eature=related

And just in case you didn't get enough... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skxHfhIoPMo&NR=1

(I wish I could find Frank and Joe's "Sway" on YouTube, but I can't. You'll just have to play the 30 second sample off iTunes... soak up the **bliss**!)


More, more, there must be more! Feed the musical need! Tell us your favorite un-famous musical treat!

well first of all, there's Pedal your blues away

but as for my very favorites, there's JP Fraley, recently deceased. No one plays the fiddle as sweetly as he does.

Then there is Vivian Williams, Seattle's own.. She and her husband founded the folklife festival

Knott, do you like Joe Venuti? Stefan Grapelli?

Jeff Larson - Singer/songwriter local to the SF Bay Area

Carolina Chocolate Drops - Wonderful young stringband.

I love the Carolina Chocolate drops!!!

If you get the chance, see them in person. Fabulous!

I'm not up on music. I still listen to Neil Diamond mostly and the radio. But I do follow a couple of bands with members from my highschool graduating class:

Dolly Rots
Four Finger Five
Mustard Plug

Well, there's me...in the band Round the House

I would be blushing with shameless self-promotion but RTH is now dissolved. You can get info at www.roundthehouse.com and I still have loads of cds, and they are still available on CD Baby...) Now I play with 2 new groups, Scatter the Dust and Cobblestone, but we don't have any cds out.
