How To Get On My Email List!
Privacy issues are important to all of us and to help with that I recently change the way I send out notifications when I add new FREE TAB or workshop schedule. I will only send out the notice to people who have requested to be put on my email list. If you want to be notified by email, please click on:
"Contact Jackie" tab at the top of this page and fill out the contact information, or you can email me at:

"Aura Lee", is a cut from the Heartstrings sampler CD. Rick Wedge on guitar, Kathy Weathers on mountain dulcimer and myself on the hammered dulcimer.
My new book, " Mountain Dulcimer Beginnings", will soon be available. It is in the finally editing stage and I hope to have it printed and ready later this month!
This month's FREE Tab is:
"Sandy River Belle." It is also known as the "Stony Ridge Stomp" with fiddlers in West Virginia. The Big Sandy River runs in Eastern Kentucky and West Virginia. There seems to be several versions of this song, but the tab is the one that is most familiar to me. The song hearkens to the days of steamboat travel.
