SSE9 Bill and Alice Saurber - Pallin With Al
In this interview, I sit down with Alice and Bill Saurber; the husband and wife musical duo "Pallin With Al". Alice plays a Tenor Ukulele and Bill plays a Ukulele Bass (UBass) and together they are very talented performing artists who hail from the Greater Cincinnati area. We had a chance to sit down in Gadsden, Alabama where they performed on-stage at the Mary G Hardin Center for Cultural Arts at the opening of their permanent Cigar Box Guitar Display and for some 20,000 people gathered for a Car Show on the 1st weekend in June.
In this episode, Bill and Alice perform their rendition of Sugarpie Desantos "Going Back Where I Belong" with an Elise LeGrow flair on their Cigar Box Ukuleles!
