    Artist description
    The original Lesl & Mike duo from college days. Guitars and vocals. The music you see here was a home-grown affair, before that sort of thing was being regularly done. Mike took the music we played in the college coffeehouses and local folk venues, and with a borrowed mixer and a lot of ingenuity, put it onto tape, mistakes and all. But wow it was fun!
    Music Style
    folk
    Musical Influences
    Richard Dyer-Bennet, The Pentangle
    Artist History
    Long ago and far away Mike sat cross-legged atop a piano on the last day of daylight savings time. That was the beginning. Now, hundreds of years later, the music is finally released, and a long way it is from the ladies' room at Island records... ha!
    Group Members
    Mike Metz and Lesl Harker. Before the time of these recordings, Mike had already been an established player on the local folk scene, having been in at least 2 previous folk groups, notably the trio "Fern, Mike & Les". (That "Les" was a boy.) Mike and Lesl were introduced and the duo was born.
