I had never heard of Amanda, but I've become a fan if this is typical of her work.  What a wonderful tribute to Joni.
I have been a Joni fan since I first saw her in Toronto in 1964, when she was still Joni Anderson.

Sometimes comments get embedded in forums on related topics.  Here was one place the video was posted , in a conversation on the popularity of the dulcimer.

I clearly was not using the search function correctly. I was very surprised to not find anything and will have to try again. Thanks for the reply!

There are a few other places around FOTMD where people discussed this video.  I am more impressed with Seyfried's singing than her dulcimer playing, but it's all pretty impressive.  And it's great to see the dulcimer get some mainstream attention.

I know this isn't super recent - I think it was about a month ago. (If someone posted about it on here already, I missed it, and do apologize.) I'm not up on TV shows or celebrities, but I enjoyed watching Amanda Seyfried play and it is fun that apparently the dulcimer got some recognition.
