Every Paul Starcevich year on March 17, the Irish and the Irish-at-heart across the globe [email protected] observe St. Patrick’s Day. What began as a religious feast day for the Secretary patron saint of Ireland has become an international festival celebrating Sue Wirt [email protected] Irish culture with parades, dancing, special foods and a whole lot of green. I do look forward to the Corned Beef & Cabbage and the toe- Treasurer Jim Ross tapping music. Maybe it’s because I have a wee bit of Irish blood in me. [email protected] Concert Master Pipe on the Hob is a local band that Steve Ono helps celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. Its [email protected] Irish name refers to an Irish fiddle Membership tune and probably refers to having a Patty Bennett [email protected] pipe (or instrument) on the bench or hob next to the fireplace in a Lifetime Member Alan Hubbart traditional Irish cottage. Members At Large Ron Bohigian The members of this band are Donn [email protected] Beedle, Carl Johnsen, Kathryn Bill Lehr Johnsen, and Karana Hattersley- [email protected] Drayton. Pipe on the Hob was Karen Starcevich formed by Donn Beedle as a trio in [email protected] the early 1980s. Original members L to R: Carl, Kathryn, Karana, Donn Ann Lamb included Donn (fiddle and viola), Sean Henry (vocals, accordion and bodhran) and [email protected] Kent Steadman (vocals, lap dulcimer and guitar). Carl Johnsen joined the trio Bill Johnson when Steadman left and Kathryn Johnsen joined soon thereafter to provide [email protected] accompaniment on the keyboard and later on the Celtic harp. Lead vocalist and Flyer Editor Bill Johnson back-up keyboard player Karana Hattersley-Drayton was recruited in 2004. The [email protected] band’s CD “Pipe on the Hob” was released in 2007. Calendar Editor Maria Glover Pipe on the Hob plays the music of the Celtic-speaking groups of the British Isles HM 559-322-8677 with a stress on Irish and Scottish reels, airs and songs.

Box 4617 Fresno, CA 93744 Banjo Frog Art Submit articles for publication to [email protected] by Jon Adams by the 15th of each month 1 President’s Notes continued: These four musicians have a wealth of experience often dating back to elementary school. Donn switched from acoustic bass to fiddle with the encouragement of local old-time musicians Harry Liedstrand and Kenny Hall. Carl played clawhammer banjo and the lap dulcimer in college but after hearing the theme song from Crockett’s Victory Garden featuring the hammered dulcimer, “it was all over”. Kathryn enjoys singing harmony with Karana. After playing violin, piano and autoharp in her younger days, she learned the harp after her husband Carl” impetuously” bought her one. Karana studied piano and voice and has worked as a church choir director. Do they enjoy playing together? A resounding yes! Karana says, “We LOVE playing together, the music is so beautiful and expressive. Does that mean we never disagree….Naw. We are musicians after all!” Kathryn adds, “Being in a band is like having another family. We attend lots of weddings, travel in the car together, celebrate birthdays, and assist each other when we need help. When Sean Henry was in his home, we continued to go and play music with him and for him as time went on. Strong relationships are formed in bands!” Donn says, “I would attribute the longevity of the band to the fact that we generally like each other. I consider my band mates as my best friends and as an added benefit, when we are locked in musically, the sound is awesome.” Pipe on the Hob will be playing for St. Patrick’s Day celebrations at the Woodward Park Library on March 13th at 7-8:00 p.m. and at the Elbow Room on March 16th from 6:30-8:30p.m. A Celtic service at Bethel Lutheran Church is also set for March 19th at 10:30 a.m. Meanwhile, Erin Go Braugh! Ireland forever! NOMINATIONS FOR FFS BOARD OF DIRECTORS Once again we are gearing up for FFS Board elections.

Nominations have to be received by March 24th, 2017, in order to be on the ballot that goes out with the April newsletter. (Sue Wirt) The Gillingham Sisters have been hard at work over the last several months, expanding their repertoire and rehearsing harmony and delivery. I had a chance to attend the Library series for “Follow the Flume” at the Central Branch in February and recommend the show to people who want to venture up to the Auberry Library on Saturday, March 25, for a one-hour show at 2:00 pm. Sponsored by the Fresno County Library, it is free to attendees. People have been asking when they might be able to buy a cd and time has come. On Friday, March 17 (St Patrick's Day), the Gilly Girls will record a live concert at the Northside Frappe House (Northside Church on Nees just west of Willow) from 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm. It is a free event although it is expected that attendees will purchase beverages at the Frappe House. It is the start of something that their mother, Danette, calls “monumental.” Whether you can attend the concert or not, you can contribute to this project through their Go Fund Me campaign at https://www.gofundme.com/gillygirls-first-album or directly to them. If you have questions, please call Danette Gillngham at (559) 250-0941. (Sue Wirt) 2 ST.

This nut house sells an extensive array of local nuts, condiments and gourmet beverages. A traditional Irish menu will be available for the St. Patrick festivities. The Sierra Nut House is located in the Villaggio Center across from River ark. www.sierranuthouse.com BE IRISH FOR ST PATRICK'S DAY WEEK Music and Celtic Dance are always part of St. Patrick's celebrations.

Pipe on the Hob members are all in the Fresno Folklore Society (Donn Beedle, Carl and Kathryn Johnsen, and Karana Hattersley-Drayton) and have been playing together for many years. If you like Irish and Scottish music, you should get one of their CDs as it is a really good one. Lark, another cool group that plays Irish and Scottish music will be appearing at the Rogue Festival and have four shows at Spectrum Gallery.
