Mike Anderson
"Mike is an inspiring player and a great storyteller. Check out his recording, Solo - Not Alone. It's one of my favorites."

Janita Baker of Blue Lion
"Janita and her husband Bob own Blue Lion Guitars and Dulcimers. Janita is an arranging wizard for a number of four-string tunings. Her recordings are at the top of my list. My third dulcimer was a Blue Lion Force - d'Ossch‚ six-string chromatic. I've also owned one of their chromatic bass dulcimers. The workmanship on these instruments is as close to perfect as humans can get. If you happen to be looking for a chromatic, you can trust Robert and Janita to get it right. Janita's inlay will blow you away. These are wonderful instruments."
1199
Nancy Johnson Barker
"Not only does Nancy run Kentucky Music Weekend, Kentucky Music Winter Weekend, and Kentucky Music Week, she's a fine player, composer, and singer. I love her Angels of Mercy recording."
1729
Ruth Barrett
"A great, smooth player and singer."

Rob Brereton
"Rob was an early pioneer of the 1-3-5 tuning. He's a trained classical guitarist who has incredible skills on the dulcimer. Make sure you hear his recording of Jazz classics arranged for dulcimer. Wow!"

Sue Carpenter
"Sue is one of my favorite fingerpickers. She does some lovely four-string-equidistant work."
1330
Ann & Phil Case
"Both of these folks can play dulcimer and all kinds of other instruments. Their Old-Time singing floors me."
1167
Mike Casey
"This fine, Irish flute player plays Irish music on the dulcimer just as well. He's got a great book on right and left-hand exercises."
1210
Bernadette Claire
"A brilliant painter, poet, singer, songwriter, actress, and dulcimer player from Massachusettes. What a voice!"
958
Mike Clemmer
"While most folks know Mike as a builder, he really is a fine player. You've got to hear him on one of his Ban-Jammers. Mike made my Ban-Jammer, a cross between a dulcimer and a banjo. Mine is set up four-string-equidistant so I can use the closest melody string as a drone string when I'm playing clawhammer style. He recently started making his regular dulcimers a little deeper resulting in a richer tone."
1205
Larkin Bryant Cohen
" Her beginner book, Larkin's Dulcimer Book, is a classic. The effects of her playing and teaching have far surpassed the outer edges of her hometown, Memphis, TN. Order her CD, Lark in the Twilight."
990
Larry Conger
" Larry is a great player from Paris, TN known for his fingerpicking, flatpicking, books, workshops, and monthly song-of-the-month CDs and tab."
1209

Dan Evans
"An awesome finger-style player from the United Kingdom. Great guitarist as well."

Ron Ewing
"Ron has spent a lot of time around the Columbus, OH Irish session scene. He know's a lot of good tunes and has a great right-hand strum for jigs. (in-out-in, in-out-in) Go to this guy for capos. Ron's dulcimette's are a must-have. They're small but powerful. He's got some other models you should check out."
1170
Richard Fari?a
"Richard Fari?a, along with his wife Mimi, were major figures in the folk music scene of the sixties. This guy got a whole lot of people playing dulcimer. His dulcimer playing amazes me more and more as I get older. Another good source of information is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Fari%C3%B1a. And whatever you do, don't miss his YouTube videos. As much as I enjoy the records, I think these Pete Seeger Rainbow Quest videos are even better. One of my all-time favorites is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6eAPLy13ZM."
1201
Doug Felt
"Doug is one of the first players I met in the dulcimer community. He has always been one of my biggest supporters. He's a great player too. Check out his CD and book."
