Avid beginner. So far I'm playing on a Backyard Instruments Simplicity dulcimer but look forward to upgrading someday!

Most of my musical interests are punk/post-punk/new wave/heavy metal/goth-ish, but I love indie/folk as well. Hit me up if you have any Metallica tabs lol.

Hi Aditi, and welcome to the wonderful world of the Friends of the Mountain Dulcimer. It's a good place to come, spend some time, learn about the dulcimer, and to meet some good people.

Welcome to FOTMD, Aditi. It's good to have you aboard. Jean Richie who is credited with introducing the Appalachian dulcimer to wider world lived in Port Washington which I believe is on Long Island. You have big shoes to fill. Just kidding. Let us know if we can help you in any way as you begin you mountain dulcimer journey.
