Basement Music Sampler
Artists featured include: Pop's Orchestra, Patsy Stoneman, Doofus, The Stewarts, Ivan Stiles, The Langley's, Dick Ward, Ginny Mannina, Katseye, Adam Miller, Mill Run Dulcimer Band, Mike Fenton & June Maugery, The New Southern Cowtipppers, Sam Stone, Eileen Kozloff, Deb Justice & Rachel Sprinkle, Karla Armstrong, and Neal & Coleen Walters. $12.00 Although involved in the recording business in one way or another for almost 30 years, it is only over the past six years that we have actively sought to record other musicians. One of the reasons we made the “great remove” to rural Greencastle, PA was to create a space that would be comfortable, inviting and supportive in the making of self-produced CDs. We are extremely grateful to the many musicians who have entrusted their projects to us and who have given us many hours of pleasure in return. This Basement Music Sampler is a selection of one tune from the major projects we’ve recorded since moving to Greencastle. For some we have been responsible for all aspects of the product – recording, editing, mixing, mastering, graphics, serving as back-up musicians and even producers. For others, our roles were limited to engineering and playing backup as noted in the song descriptions. If you enjoy one or more of these cuts, be sure to contact the artist and order their CD. Tell them that we sent you!

Patsy Stoneman
Patsy says "The Stoneman's and Stoneman groups have been around playing music for over 100 years. The autoharp has been in their families too all that time. I think Daddy was the first one to take it real serious though and go to New York with it. He had lots of nerve. And since that time, I've kept it as much as I could since Daddy passed away. You have it in your home now and I hope you enjoy it ... every bit of it."
