Have you ever played the comb?
Ever attended a comb concert?
We have one in Selma every year at the Alabama Tale-Tellin' Festival.
The evenings of storytelling and music end with an "I'll Fly Away" comb concert
led by The Dill Pickers. Make plans to attend this family-friendly event
next October, and you don't even have to play your own comb!
Tale-Tellin' supplies the comb and the tissue paper!
Comb concerts in Selma were the creation of Selma storyteller/author
Kathryn Tucker Windham, who also founded the festival.
Ever since she went to Heaven a few years ago, we continue to honor
her memory with her favorite gospel song played and hummed on combs!

ReplyDeleteI HAVE played the comb but have never been to a comb concert. I think everyone attending must smile throughout!
