andi and i performs a substantive body of original "funked-up folk," interrupted by the occasional well-chosen cover tune. Al Tauber's lyrics, ranging from intensely thoughtful to patently absurd (sometimes within the same song), are well served by his dexterous and creative guitar playing and Andi Tauber's whisper-to-roar vocals. As one venue operator has noted, "It's often difficult to believe that so much music is coming from two voices and a guitar."

Music was an important facet of Ben Brown's childhood on a rural Midwestern farm. It had always been a vital part of his Cherokee, Irish and African American heritage; his mother commonly expressed her thoughts and feelings through song. His parents' appreciation for the music of the big bands, jazz, country-western and the music of so many other cultures exposed him to a great variety of musical styles and interpretations. His first exposure to the harp was Harpo Marx playing boogie-woogie and jazz.

Years later, in a harp world dominated by orchestral pedal harps and classical music, Ben singlehandedly reintroduced and helped repopularize a singular variety of folk harp which had been obsolete for close to 100 years with only three or four original European examples still in existence. He has proven this harp to be uniquely suited to the jazz, blues and improvisational music of his youth.

Twenty years after Ben Brown's reintroduction of the cross strung into the American folk harp world, the instrument boasts several hundred players and growing.

Dear Music Fans,

I play alot of the music I have written at concerts. Most people stand around watching and claping. If you like music I think we could be good friends, because that means we would have alot in common. I've been playing and writting music all my life. So if you have any questions about my life, music or want to play some frisbee come to the show. See you there.

Thanks,
Benjamin Ezra

Bryan Moyer Suderman loves to sing, and people of all ages love to sing along. A singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Bryan combines his love of God and passion for the church with a fascination for folk music traditions from around the world. Since the release of his album "God's Love is for everybody" in November 2002, Bryan's "songs for small and tall" have become favourites with families and churches across Canada and beyond, and have been used in congregations, camps, schools, ecumenical worship services, conferences, seminary courses, Vacation Bible School curriculum... not to mention being played and sung over and over again in cars and homes!
