A Sampling of our Musicians

The Vintage
​Stringband

This acoustic group of southeast Michigan musicians are bound together mainly by their passion for playing music together and their desire to share their musical joy with others.  They play old-time, Celtic (Irish, Scottish),  traditional, bluegrass and other types of tunes with an interesting blend of hammered dulcimers, fiddles,  guitars, banjo, penny whistle, harmonicas, wooden spoons, musical saw, hurdy gurdy, bass and vocals.  

Kandy Fredrick

Music is the essence of a happy life. Telling your story through song or telling other peoples stories through song gets you right in the heart. If folk/country is what you are looking for, than I hope that you can find a connection with my music.  I enjoy playing and singing folk, country (old and new), and classic rock. I am a late starter, but my love for making music is obvious. I hope you listen. I hope you love.

The Brain Plasticity
​Ukulele Collective

An intergenerational group of musicians (currently 35-85 years young) playing all styles and genres of music and encompassing all levels of ability. Some of the musicians in the collective have been playing professionally for a lifetime and some in the collective are only a few years into their musical odyssey.  Those more experienced in their musical understanding supporting those in the collective more recently tuning into their craft. As a result, we all benefit emotionally and spiritually. Among the instruments in the collective are vocals, guitar, flute, bass, mandolin, mandola, accordion, drums, keyboards, harmonica and of course soprano, concert, tenor and baritone ukulele. 
Ageing affects us all and learning an instrument later in life has benefits for the plasticity and neurogenesis of one’s brain. 
Drop a brain bomb. Fire up the synapses. Rewire some neurons and strum into cognition. Why don’t you pick up a uke? We did. We are always open to new members.
