Fulbright wrote, “in the long run of history, having people who understand your thought is much greater security than another submarine.”
That’s why I think TBC, bassist in Hebrew School, has been chosen, along with “fiddler on the record” A.J. Rabins, Sarah Alden (fiddle, voice) and Sean Condron (guitar, banjo, voice) to represent our country as The Hoppin’ John Stringband.
They’re on a state deparment-via-Lincoln Center mission of international exchange through music, education, collaboration and performance. Along the way, they’re hitting up Nicaragua, Belize, Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala. Yep, the whole thing is pretty awesome.
Check them out the day before yesterday in Nicaragua’s capital…
Maybe they’ll return to Managua?
And be sure to check in with Taylor, Alicia, and Sarah as they blog on the road.
So glad these guys are representing our president…
