With Anita re-joining, they are back to the original trio after a 2 year hiatus; they first hatched the idea for The Musers in 2017; Anita (Sandwina) & Megan (McLaughlin) are the 2 songwriters (Tom (Kuhn) 'just ;) plays bass); The Money Question (have you been able to make a living playing music, & if so, how) - Megan was a kindergarten & 1st grade teacher for 28 years, and is now retired - Anita taught art for 29 years, and is now retired; - Tom worked for Luther Burbank Housing, and is now retired; they have a new CD, & are sorting it out - deep dive into what that means, putting the parts together, what instruments, etc.; song "Mistakes" came to Megan when she heard Anita's book on tape when she was listening before falling asleep, and had to write down the chorus then & there: "You are not your mistakes" (with the added irony that Dangerous Dan had listened to the CDs, then refiled them in the wrong case, so they listened to the Muser's song about "Mr. Rogers Neighborhood (Squirrel Hill)" before correcting the mistake. An interview on "The Bushwhacker's Breakfast Club" with "Dangerous Dan" Orange airing Friday mornings on KZSC Santa Cruz, California. 2026 is Bushwhacker's 37th year on the air! Thanks for listening!
