Music lover Often, Debbie says, “I have to emcee a show, or take tickets or serve food. We have to do whatever we have to do.” Sometimes, at a late-night, post-show jam, she will add her own guitar to the melee of instruments. “I’ve played guitar for years, as a church youth leader, around campfires and with youth groups. I play guitar in a rock band at church. It’s great for mental health. Some people cook, some people garden—I like music,” she says. When the PEI Mutual Festival of Small Halls begins, “I’m just a cog in the wheel,” Debbie insists, but she laughs, “I’ve been a constant cog—I’m the only original cog left. “Every year for the festival, we have to hire new staff, and they are often 20- somethings with not a lot of knowledge of traditional music, Debbie says.
