I was very fortunate to be invited to an evening with 10 String Symphony hosted by Straight up Strings by Siminoff at Roger Siminoff's home in San Luis Obispo last weekend.
My friend Amy is part owner of Siminoff Banjo and Mandolins Parts; a business her step father started in his garage. According to Harvey, it's "the gold standard". Amy and her sister, Kali, started Straight Up Strings which broadens the Siminoff brand.
The dynamic duo have also decided to start producing concerts. An Evening with 10 String Symphony is just the beginning. I can't wait to be taking pictures at sold out venues very soon.
Enjoy.

For those who know me, I rarely forget anything. So of course, I forgot my camera when packing. Thanks to my friends Amy and Tegan, I borrowed theirs and I will have to say, the unedited black and white pictures from a camera I've never used before turned out nice.
2015 has started with a bang; my first wedding and now my first concert. I keep stumbling in to these opportunities; hopefully, many more to come!

You won't be sad you did, trust me.
