In honor of Women’s History Month and International Women’s Day, join acoustic guitarist/vocalist Nina Romano accompanied by bass guitarist, as they pay tribute to Maybelle Carter, a member of the original Carter Family, formed in 1927 and  one of the first commercial rural country music groups. Maybelle, who played autoharp and banjo as well as being the group’s guitarist, created a unique sound for the group with her innovative ‘scratch’ style of guitar playing.  Join Nina Romano as she tells her story with illustrative songs, musical examples, and other lore from the period.
