We hear about their current exploits and past musical influences, and co-host David Luken adds more insight into the meaning of old-time music.

[00:14:59] And let's see And Danny, you were playing Like a resonator guitar Yeah, that's not one I made That was okay But I am in the work I got one in the work I'm making And the reason I mentioned this is because Danny is a Luthier I guess

[00:15:32] I made the art shop guitar that Molly was playing And Molly was playing guitar Want to hear guitar? Beautiful I know, it was fantastic So that was great So that was really singing Right, let's we Miss an important detail Roy and Cleo were both singing

[00:17:15] I'd like to see that I definitely make it It's up there It's getting finished out It's getting a strings on it soon So that's the difference Most of the divas between a fiddle and a violin I think we've discovered the difference The fiddle has
[00:17:34] Well, the violin has strings And the fiddle has strings Okay I need a piece of... Really it's... I hear violinists call in at their fiddle all the time And a lot of fiddleers They pick out their rest violin And fiddle it, you know So the names interchange
[00:17:56] Well we know a fiddle music sounds like That's Charlie Daniels And violins or anything else All right, so we've solved that problem That's great You're right here in the two-catt kitchen And we're going to do another song What do you have for us now?

[00:19:56] We're back at the two-catt kitchen And you know, Danny, I like to talk to you A little bit more about your Lutheran background How did you get it to do that kind of stuff? So it was a musician and you know, a jack of all trades
[00:21:02] Kind of carpenter, handyman and artist Went to some art school and put it all together I got interested in a guitar who made a friend who made guitars in Portland, Oregon And I did a community college course there
[00:21:20] Trying to build a band to an about halfway done with it And never finished it Moved Out east After meeting Molly We moved out to Rhode Island And I took some workshops and Vermont to build a bandjo for two weeks And three week workshop to build a guitar
[00:21:39] And that helped me get employment at a factory Making up bright bases So I made quite a few bases of on a team up in base Yeah, and the team alluth years And so that was kind of my introduction to, you know, like a fast-paced way
[00:21:56] To build instruments And you know, real life, you know, not just like a workshop But, you know, real factory And then I went to violin making school in Boston, North Bend and Street School And I received my training there Three years, ten months a year
[00:22:14] And I was able to build violins, a violin, a cello And since then I graduated that's like eight years ago I've been running my own business Actually I was like nine years ago Running my own business, just building custom violins I've built quite a few banjoes And mandalins
[00:22:36] Do a lot of repair work Anything, you know, that I have time for I like to repair people's instruments and keep going You got a bus to guitar, fiddle banjo Now you know, you can bring it to

[00:23:15] And there are, you know, details that I, yeah People definitely ship violins internationally And I just have yet to do it, but I Any, any where on earth? Yeah, and you mentioned you guys meeting So, yeah, meeting And I met them around the time when I moved here
[00:23:40] I think I met a molly first Danny showed up somewhere along the way there After you met him, he's gone back out I think we met at the wood river end Really? I think so I, I believe you Yeah How did you to meet and then become
[00:23:58] Music-Leon bond? Well, Molly was caught in me She wanted, she wanted me But she used the excuse of My banjo expertise helping her find a banjo That she had, she was trying to acquire one Found that good deal on Craigslist That's not a toll That's not a toll
[00:24:20] Well, that's not a toll And you were pretending to have some expertise Yes, I mean, yes But we first met at a place called Mrs. Sufi People's in Portland He was playing a game with some like old-time banjo Yeah And so I was in told-time music
[00:24:41] Like I mentioned I learned from sandals And then I moved out to Portland And there's like a big old-time music scene there So I was going around To GMs And shows and stuff And somehow I was up at his And we met at Mrs. Sufi Pizza
[00:25:00] And then we had like a mutual friend Randomly Chom And then we just started hanging out And then like he did mention I found that banjo on Craigslist Because I think the fiddle I wanted to learn banjo As well
[00:25:13] And I asked him to come with me to check it out Let me just throw a hand out Play music That's pretty good That's pretty good Such a beautiful story No, that's quite good It's history The rest of his history 20 banjo's later We still haven't seen that
[00:25:32] Can you show us how It's not in the room But it's like a big hander like a roover banjo Yeah I sound dangerous It started in the room So sounds like you found the mountain area Yeah, from Portland I had board and mostly raised there
[00:25:49] We've been here since we were just a couple years And I was 19 21 Went back to Portland Yeah Yeah, a few years later Met Molly And she was playing fiddle And really like Memorize tunes better than anybody So right away after fiddle And for just a few years
[00:26:12] She's joined the Square Dance Band It just had a lot of fun with that Still Still learning tunes Nice We've done some square dances out here A couple of them Because I learned to call square dances So is it square dance or Contra dance It's square dance
[00:26:31] Square dance Yeah Because I know that here in New England The Contra dances are really big Yeah There are a lot more... Well, I guess there are a lot more popular But there's not very many square dances out here No, unfortunately We need to take a break
[00:26:48] We need to take a break We need to take a break We need to take a break We need to take a break We need to take a break So Molly, you've been in Portland too For a while Is that true? In a clothing program
[00:27:24] Yeah, so I went to... I'm from Rhode Island I'm from Gloster Rhode Island And then I went to your eye And after college I went for pharmacy And after that I went And moved out to Portland And worked as a pharmacist Out there And a few different jobs
[00:27:42] One was at Alternative complementary Alternative medicine Like an integrated pharmacy That they have out there Which is really cool And then I worked for the county The Public Health Department But anyway, as I moved out to Portland They had a big old-time music scene
[00:27:58] And got kind of involved And that And kept learning more and more tunes And then we moved back here to Rhode Island And started hanging out with Sandalind Rory again And met David And we would go to the Brown class at Sandalind Rory And learn more tunes

[00:28:38] I think that's really cool I mean, pharmacists have to know a lot of stuff We do Do you know how all those drugs work, can I? I think that's why I was good at memorizing the tunes You know, because I had to memorize a lot
[00:28:51] And the pharmacy school So I really dreamed my memory And then was able to memorize all the tunes Like Daniel mentions But I'm forgetting a lot of them now Hopefully not for your hands No, that's just pharmacy
[00:29:06] Okay, anyway, all right, we're going to wrap up this part of the program And one thing we ask all our guests here on the 2K kitchen Is what is your earliest musical memory And so I'd like to hear what you guys think about that

[00:35:08] We're back at the two cat kitchen And it's time for our recipe What do you have first today? Danny, I think you got it Yes, so we have a special recipe here from our family Called Lovely Lemon Lavender Scones Wow
[00:35:32] And we have some right in front of us here It is look glorious I mean look great I haven't tried it Maybe we'll talk about it a little bit first And then we can try it All right, lovely Lemon Lavender Scones How does this one?
[00:35:50] What is the basis? How do you like scones? Danny makes good scones He's made good scones ever since he went to Violin making school in Boston He would stop and get scones right Danny Yeah, he gained 30 pounds He would stop and get scones right Danny
[00:36:08] Yeah, I gained 30 pounds He would do used to mix scones He would just eat them He would just stop and get scones He would just stop and get scones On the way home, he would get the next slice of pizza Before catching the train home
[00:36:20] You know having fun up there is really nice treat But I think it was last year you started making scones once in a while He tons of sweets We try to eat pretty much on the other side Yeah, that sounds, well scones are pretty healthy
[00:36:34] I mean what they are? They're pretty, there's not a ton of sugar in them But the reason we made these lavender ones is because Roy It's just graduated kindergarten And he got a little recipe book from his teachers And one of his teachers had made lavender cookies
[00:36:49] So last weekend when we went over Davids and sandalin worries for a pot Like we made those lavender cookies to try and blend And it did not get one Sorry about that, but So then we got a bunch of lavender and we're like okay now
[00:37:04] We need other things to make with the lavender And y'all you're vegan, right? Vegetarian Vegetarian Okay, yeah there's a lot of butter in this This is good Yeah, I'm holding Roy's recipe book It's from his kindergarten His teachers put together recipes like their Monday
[00:37:27] Bread recipe, their Tuesday, soup recipe And what's the pot of all that pizza? Yeah, so you can write other recipes in that book So we'll write this one in Roy, is this food that they made? Did you make the food when you were in school?
[00:37:40] So it's the recipes from your school when you were in school Oh, that's pretty cool So you can... I don't know if I could cook you for a glass of food Oh okay, that's it So now you can make them at home And then I'm gonna add
[00:37:54] Wow, great I mean even by the blood doll They made the dough, they even made the dough They even made the dough It's very cool Scratch Yeah What's the history of scones? Does anybody know? Well, it really goes back Ever since met in Mesopotamia
[00:38:14] Really when human started farming Then I can't really make this bread After baking bread I'm gonna make this to even better It's like let's just add some butter to it Not too much sugar And that's the facts Right there, I spoke to 8,000 people
[00:38:35] You could still wonder this during adding lavender That's actually modern I thought maybe I'm the first one to do it And so I didn't grow this lavender, you can source it locally This is off Amazon of the book company They also sell lavender Good to know
[00:38:54] Yeah, I'll check my facts in there Yeah, now the question What are the ingredients of your scones when you get into that? Yeah, so let's start with two This is for one batch You're gonna start with two cups of flour Five-ish tablespoons of sugar
[00:39:09] Table spoon of baking powder Tea spoon of salt You're gonna zest a lemon I zest two lemons Maybe half of the zest is still on the right Or on the peel there Use your best judgment One and a half teaspoons Lavender Dryed culinary lavender
[00:39:30] But you know, that's your solution Good lavender That's what you did Take out the stems with the kids You just chopped it up fine No, I mean I just bought it It's in a bag And so you want to get like the purple flowers
[00:39:42] Yeah, and take stems out that you can And twigs And I mean you're just, it's a subtle flavor You put too much like the second batch of cookies I did I put too much in It was almost like you're eating So... Yeah, yeah, so like this is subtle
[00:39:57] No, and I think the lemon adds Like the zest, it's really hard Oh, and lavender tea We made lavender tea a few times That's nice It's really hard It's a culinary lavender This is culinary lavender Let's put these two in here
[00:40:10] Yeah, but yeah, I mean I think theyce It's as food green So when we went through various recipe book for the cookies I noticed this has food green lavender So I searched for food green lavender
[00:40:21] Is it different than the stuff you use for like tea or like wine? I feel like it's not But I, but don't take my word for it Yeah, well just curious about that Well you're to finish all the subtle tea Yeah, so you don't want to eat it
[00:40:35] You don't want to eat a soap scum All right, so going back to your experience Yeah, I, I, I, I, I, I No other pretty common ingredients for any baked good What makes us going to scum? Well, I think it's the, the butter I left that out
[00:40:49] You got to get six tablespoons of cold butter Cold butter Cold butter Yeah, I put a teaspoon of vanilla And two thirds cup milk, you know Got to get it moist And so I think this is my experience Reading in on scones
[00:41:05] And having a lot of, you know, pretty good scones out there But you want to get the cold butter And need it in But you're not going to warm it up To the point that the, the butter is fully melted And you want to have pockets of butter
[00:41:22] So when you put it into the oven Those butter pockets are going to melt And you're going to have a flaky Yet moist Scone Okay, that's what's going You're in England Oh, I didn't know that Scone It's gone Alright, so that's the deal It's, um, it's the layer
[00:41:47] Because I guess, huh? I'm flaking the flaky layers Yeah, and you can't need it too much This is, okay, this is 10 to 15 times Really? 10 to 15 times and you've done it enough Unless it's not a ball yet And then need it a little more
[00:42:04] But once it's a ball you can go ahead and turn it into a Pizza-shaped Uh, one inch thick Pizza-shaped Uh, round Put it down, slice it up Like a pizza, eight slices And uh, put it out on your, oh, this is after you bake it
[00:42:23] No, this is before you bake it Before you bake it, get your, get your round Yeah, one inch thick or so Round, uh, depending on how much dough you got going here Like about the size of a volleyball and in, in circle
[00:42:38] Yeah, and just cut it with a knife it will then you can pull it apart It's pretty solid Yeah, and make sure it has a little space in between the other triangles Okay, well there's, you know So you cut it again Yeah, okay Yeah, okay
[00:42:55] And then how much do you bake it? 425, 425 degrees or so And on your oven for about 12 to 13 minutes And really the first time I baked this yesterday was 12 minutes And it was a little bit doughy
[00:43:11] But it had a nice, you know, kind of caramelized in the sugar down there at the bottom Second time I did it 13 minutes Perfect Bought of being these are the best ones One minute difference, one minute difference Yeah, that's not crazy how that is Yeah, and uh, right
[00:43:30] That sounds great I'm going to try mine I know if you guys will try it Oh, it's all of mine This is the, uh, I already forgot to name it Lovely lemon lavender scum I added the shell Oh, yeah, I added that extra shell Oh, these are good
[00:43:47] This is my third one The third one is better The first one is too Oh, okay, I might eat two more Yeah The third attention here Well, my third, and my third scone Sorry, you can really taste the lemon in the lavender
[00:44:08] Yeah, there's no lemon juice in it, you know? Just says that, that's That's just a leaf, that's just gives more flavor than the cheese Oh, yeah, zest is, zest is pretty magic You could, I could you could zest anything
[00:44:22] I mean you could, you could zest, you could zest many things And you could also use zest for many Plus, they really want some scone Oh, backstreet, backstreet Oh, backstreet boy He doesn't normally eat people food But when we got him as a puppy
[00:44:40] We did learn the people who we got him from Said he loves toast Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah We're strict here about I'm not going to get him I'm going to get him, so the right goes to I'll let that slip Punishment, rocket, star
[00:45:26] A old man's side and his little cat and horse Little opportunity like Tuesday Tell me all the dinner always made by him It was raining in the hall, but it didn't dare He's out of way with the popular Then he moved top-sake like a waterfall
[00:45:42] Didn't think the ball would be your man at all
[00:47:06] Our kids are so jabber Fantastic, that's your big smile Yeah, that sounded wonderful And I was wondering You were talking earlier about Diving into the old recordings and stuff From the way back in the day And I was wondering where that version comes from I think that one
[00:47:29] It was just a mix of some But I'd be sometimes play like a pretty cool Time-y-gerrel version of Arkansas Traveler A little bit different than that one Where the lyrics come from? Where'd you learn those lyrics? Okay, so you picked that up from a...
[00:47:48] From CDs like Low Mags and All-Sh stuff Low Mags is a public broadcasting program He's the kind of music Yeah, how do music can you? That's a lot of our music Either comes from old recordings or Children's programs And we just play it the best we can
[00:48:10] We didn't do any jokes Sometimes that dark-asalt traveler You'll stop to play and hit a quick joke Like a farmer How come you're roofed leaking Well, I got up there to fix it It wasn't leaking because it wasn't raining
[00:48:27] I guess you'd have to work up those jokes to get something to laugh on Oh, you know, that's it. It was close Yeah, that was there, but right home Mm-hmm So this is the recipe for my dark-bought thing So I'm then guess some toast
[00:48:52] Put ice cream on top Pino-bara, lada ice cream Kerosene on top and then put a bone on the top Fones gibbering That sounds so good That's your brother And a banana Dark's not gonna be the best Backster loved things That's I wouldn't like that
