I’ve been playing Americana music of one sort or another for the last forty years. The musicians I used to play with in the early days had a flatbed truck and we would haul out an upright piano, strap it to the wall of the flatbed up by the cab, and we would drive around and play music off the back of the truck. This was before you could get in trouble for that early hippie stuff! Because I was working at a sawmill at the time and could lift stuff pretty well, I would get one end of the piano by myself so they started calling me Moose. As I got older, it became Ol’ Moose. I've been playing with some younger folks for the last ten years or so, the past few of which have been with the Merry Pranksters. We hope you enjoy the music!
