Join us on Tuesday June 9 at 7 p.m. for our next Speaker Session featuring award-winning songwriter and luthier K.T. Vandyke. With this program, K.T. will share how he reconstructs and restores the threads of life in the instruments that find their way to his hands. Owner and operator of Frog Level Guitar Shop, a business with 40+ years of operation, Vandyke keeps alive a storied history of lutherie that was handed down to him by his mentor Walter “Skip” Herman. Hundreds of guitars have passed across his bench from Golden Era Martin and Gibson acoustics, to the workhorse instruments seen on stage with performers like Morgan Wade and Dave Matthews.
