Kate McDonnell's 2007 Concert History
Kate McDonnell’s introduction to folk music was conventional, if precocious – as a four-year-old, she heard a Joan Baez album in her mother’s collection. Her reaction was somewhat less conventional: she picked up her mom’s guitar, taller than she was, and started to teach herself how to play the instrument, strung for a righthanded player, lefthanded – “upside down and backwards,” using her stronger right hand for chording and ignoring the customary positioning of the guitar strings.
