Martha can’t remember a time when she wasn’t singing—starting at an early age to harmonize with her sister and making up tunes on the piano. In her adult life, Martha, torn between becoming a math professor or a musician, ultimately decided to do both. Martha plays multiple instruments (11 at last count) and is a song writer and marathon jammer. In her many years as a musician, she’s played with numerous groups from acoustic to rock ‘n’ roll. While a member of Rosy’s Bar and Grill, Martha performed on Garrison Keillor’s Prairie Home Companion radio program.

Mike and Martha met at a Kansas City weekly potluck dinner where friends gather, dine, then retire to the living room to make music.
