“Jean helped me to revive my personal connection to music and helped inspire and re-instill confidence.”
“Jean coached at a Jam Skills workshop. Not only is she an amazing musician, she was warm, wonderfully patient and encouraging with the students, and well-versed in the bluegrass style of playing.”
“As a beginning fiddler, I found Jean to be kind, encouraging and patient. She definitely “knows her stuff” when it comes to bluegrass music.”
