» professorcyndi - Folk Music

If I were to place myself into a genre, I would do so in the folk music category. Inspired by many simplistic songs learned when I was young and by music created by or sung by such artists as John Denver, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, etc...., taking some lessons from each, I have developed my own style. I respect your opinions on the folk music great's webpages, and I would certainly like your opinion on my page, as well. www.cyndifisher.com I have one question: Why do you post an electric mandolin/mandola...I can't tell the difference in the picture...if you have begun a folk music page?

In response to Folk Music posted by professorcyndi:

I can answer your question about the electric mando, professor cyndi, as it is my instrument. I used the image when I hosted these pages - a year or so ago. Why did I use it? - it depends on your definition of folk and let's not get into that! But suffice to say, I play it in an electric folk band http://www.folkstomp.com so it was the perfect image for me.

Folk music has been the musical undercurrent to much of my life also. In my case, it was Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, Peter, Paul and Mary, and Buffy Sainte-Marie, then later John Denver, Neil Young, and now singer-songwriters like Richard Shindell. The mandolin was already in place when I took over the site. I have not yet decided whether or not I will replace it.
