Singing is about community, and it's rare that a couple has humor, humbleness, and a real sense of what's important in this world to teach and lead others in song. As they often tell their audiences, "if you know the song, sing along. If you don't, sing anyway."
They embody what they call "living room music." It's not the "show-off" tunes, but the songs that are quiet, sometimes, that make us think about what's important --family, home, getting along, kindness, and giving back. And sometimes the songs are so delightfully wacky that we learn to laugh in a time when life is not always so funny.
Flip and Zeke are jewels in a town that's full of talented musicians. But they make us smile, they make us weep, they make us shout for joy. We see ourselves more clearly though the songs they sing.
