Down the Road on the Blue Ridge Music Trails of North Carolina

Episode 14: Jayne Henderson: Luthier and Environmentalist


Listen Later

Jayne Henderson had no intention of working in the world of music. She went to school to study environmental law. However, the heart knows what it wants. After growing up with creativity in her blood and a family of luthiers before her, Jayne found herself crafting guitars side-by-side with her father, with a twist... she chooses the materials mindfully, using wood right in her backyard. 

Music featured: 

  • Doc Watson, "Tellin' My Troubles to My Old Guitar"
  • Dream Guitars, Demo of Jayne Henderson's guitar
  • Wayne Henderson, "Wheels"
