A little background ...
"How did a coal miners daughter from Pike County & heavy machinery mechanic from Van Lear end up collaborating?
Well... I first met Gary when we worked together for the Americana Music Association in 2021. He handcrafted a cigar box guitar to be given as an award to Buddy Miller & I painted it up nice & purty. Since then he and I have been working together to create instrumental artworks.
He works out of his home in Auxier, KY using hand tools & many found objects to create these one of a kind handcrafted instruments. You may be playing a banjo made from a spoon drawer from his homeplace in Van Lear, KY or a geetar made from his daddy's old truck license plate, with tone knobs from my friends grandma's oven controls. As for my artistic input, if you've ever seen my artwork before then you know it comes from the love of the Appalachian mountains, its memories, and its people.
We hope you enjoy these instruments as much as we enjoyed creating them."
Love all y'all,
Stef
