For over 20 years, Neal played with the Mill Run Dulcimer Band and recorded eight albums with them. Coleen is a talented fabric artist.  Neal provides the strong vocal lead of the duet while playing guitar, mountain dulcimer, banjo, mandolin or autoharp.  Coleen sings a low harmony and plays bass or percussion (rhythm egg or limberjack). Neal and Coleen also play as a duo at festivals and workshops across the country, including the Central Florida Dulcimer Festival in Mount Dora, FL.
