MennoJazz, yeah that's it. It's the best way I can describe what I do, the way I play. I wasn't raised Mennonite, but I'm glad I'm part of the culture. So while I am also a church musician and help lead on Sunday morning. That jazz flavor can't help but creep in there.

What is the folkdata database?
Simply put, the folkdata database is intended to be a comprehensive listing of Mennonite artists and performers.
In practical terms, we hope that it will serve several purposes. Mennonites in North America live in increasingly diverse locations and maintaining a focused faith connection within the arts community can be difficult. We hope that folkdata will be a vehicle for artists and performers to connect with their peers in the contemporary Mennonite world.
Second, we hope to be more accessible to the general population. As the world becomes ever smaller with the growth of technology and free flow of information, folkdata will provide a resource for persons interested in learning more about the Mennonite culture through music, song, and the visual arts.
