Susan Trump
needs
no introduction to many of us, and as always, we're delighted
to have her coming back to our festival. Susan sings eloquently
of the things in our lives that really matter: songs of home,
hills, farms, and small town America. Her skill on mountain
dulcimer, guitar, and banjo is amazing (as well as award-winning),
her humor is warm and uplifting, and her teaching has touched
many of us in ways beyond measure. She lives right here in the
Albany area, but the Appalachian Mountains are in her heart
and in her music.
