Just who is “The Dulcimer Gal”?
It’s me, it’s me! I’m The Dulcimer Gal!
Hello there, My name is Mary and yes, I’m known around town as “the Dulcimer Gal.” I fell in love with the hammered dulcimer years ago and finally bought my first one on May 16, 2005 and it’s still my favorite dulcimer. It’s a James Jones 3/16/15/4 and still sounds beautiful.
I also have a Chris Foss 14/13/8 hammered dulcimer along with a T.K. O’Brien Backpacker. I have acquired several mountain dulcimers as well as a few other instruments. We’ll talk about those later.

I love playing music. Music speaks to the soul when nothing else can. Did you know scientist say music has the ability to repair brain damage and return lost memories?
Want to hear me play?
I play in several small shops around town whenever I have time and, on a warm day in spring, summer or fall, you’ll find me playing for the wildlife in local parks. Music soothes the savage beast!
