Joshua Messick is a national hammered dulcimer champion. Nobody is more fluid on the instrument. Nobody asks more of the hammered dulcimer and certainly nobody else gets such a response. Joshua introduces the instrument to places it didn’t know it belonged and makes both the dulcimer and the music sound like they’ve known each other forever. The live stream Josh will present for White Horse Live on Fri. July 24 will be especially important. Josh will premiere material from his new solo LP, Pure Hammered Dulcimer. A combination of original compositions and timeless songs, the LP is yet another step in Joshua’s journey. The first track, “DulciForte” in and of itself is a dazzling piece of music, taking the instrument and Josh even a big step further.
