Dulcimer Musician Teacher Ukulele
Debbie Porter
Listing Info
from the Debbie Porter web site
I grew up singing the songs I learned from my grandmother in Northeast Texas. I began playing the songs of the rural South on ukulele at age 11. When I was 16 my mother saved up all her Green Stamps and ordered a Kay banjo for me which I quickly re-tuned to sound like a ukulele. I worked my way through college playing and teaching music. In 1971, I moved to Austin and had a chance to play at the Checquered Flag with some of the great Texas songwriters like Alan Damron, Rusty Weir, and Shake Russell.
Debbie teaches both dulcimer and ukulele, giving workshops and concerts around the country.
