“Well Strung Wood” is four musicians that blend their talents for slow airs and waltzes, rousing fiddle tunes, playful and fun songs, and traditional ballads as a unique ensemble with wide appeal.

Jeff Furman is a multi-instrumentalist (mountain dulcimer, clawhammer banjo, guitar, autoharp, and string bass) who has been playing old-time music since 1980.  Primarily a banjo player for many years, Jeff developed a rhythmic and melodic style of playing which has heavily influenced his dulcimer playing.  He has an extensive repertoire of old-time fiddle music which crosses over to a strong interest in Celtic music.

Janet Furman is known for her beautiful vocals and a wonderful combination of sweet touch on melody and harmony fiddle along with an energetic driving old-time fiddle sound.

Norm Boggs is a well-known and renowned fiddler and guitar player with a vast repertoire of traditional songs, shanties, and Civil War era tunes.

Gordon Arnold is a marvelous cellist capable of playing many styles of music.  In addition to bowing tasteful counter-melodies and playing up-tempo fiddle tunes, Gordon also “frails” the cello adding a unique and supportive low rhythmic sound to fiddle tunes.

The ability of these four musicians to blend their talents for slow airs and waltzes, rousing fiddle tunes, playful and fun songs, and traditional ballads makes “Well Strung Wood” a unique ensemble with wide appeal.
