Bruce plays Mandolin, Acoustic and Electric Guitars, Lap Steel, 6 String Bass Guitar, and Foot-board on original compositions that span his carreer from his first Mandolin tune, to his recent Hurricane Katrina tribute.

Rhythm and Celtgrass." Among the most talented artists to play at the cafe, Bruce has become an icon.  Bound full of energy, master of the mandolin, dobro, and guitar, his music soars.  Fusing genres, challenging boundaries, and stunning musicianship culminate in a performance never to be missed." -Clark Roberts, Salida Cafe

Virginia Shimp HayesGLASTONBURY OBITUARY:

Virginia Shimp Hayes
 


Virginia "Tiny" Hayes, 83, died February 20, 2009 at Columbine Manor in Salida, Colorado. 
She was born Hester Virginia Shimp on August 4, 1925 to Byron and Besse (Good) Shimp of Pelham, New York.

Tiny began studying ballet at age 7. In her teens she was a student of famed dance teacher Steffi Nossen. She graduated Smith College in 1946 and continued to dance in Nossen's ballets. Signed by choreographer Agnes deMille, she played "Aggie" in the Broadway and touring production of "Oklahoma". 

She married Walter A. Hayes Jr. in 1954 and raised three children - Lindsay O'Bara of Keene, NH, Bruce Hayes of Howard, CO, and Douglas Hayes who passed away in 1998. Her husband passed away in 2003. They lived in Glastonbury, Connecticut from 1972 to 2001. 

Her ashes will be held in Colorado, a state that she loved to visit - She especially loved the wildflowers.
