Intro to Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack

Jessie and I began playing folk music together this spring (2015). We have performed at Farmer's Markets, Sing-alongs, birthday parties and in The Archway under the Manhattan Bridge. For our first recorded song we chose the popular gospel hymn written by Albert E. Brumley in 1929. We recorded this in Jessie's kitchen with her ipad.
