Mountain Dulcimer + Bowed Saw

I've been listening to my recent recordings from the Radio Springs Hotel in Lyonville, Victoria, Australia, and I'm sharing two more from a performance on October 23, 2010.  These two tunes belong to Phil Mac, my bowed-saw-playing, Aussie-muso-songwriter, friend.  Here's my photo of Phil from last year:

Here are two of our performance recordings, as mentioned above:

Big Family in a Little Band, by Phil Mac, performed by Phil Mac, Adrian Kosky, and Carla Maxwell, October 23, 2010, Radio Springs Hotel, Lyonville, Victoria, Australia

Seasons Come and Seasons Go, by Phil Mac, performed by Phil Mac, Adrian Kosky, and Carla Maxwell, October 23, 2010, Radio Springs Hotel, Lyonville, Victoria, Australia

Sometimes when Dr. Phil Mac puts down his saw, he picks up his harmonica.  Here's my photo of Phil with his harp at a music festival in Castlemaine, Victoria, Australia, in 2009.  

Phil is an awesome poet/performer.  I like the sounds he makes with that bowed-saw!  He's the man with the triangle at times, too. (See the photo below.  I took that photo last year at Breakfast and Beer. Phil Mac and Adrian Kosky, all-amped-up and performing at October Fest in Daylesford, Victoria, Australia.)  

I'm just sayin'..... whatever he is playin' -- saw, triangle, egg-shakers, or harmonica --my friend Phil adds depth to droning dulcimer sounds! 

I thank God for bringing new friends and a variety of music into my life!
