Unique antiquity

I made the decision not to go Winter NAMM this year and am now regretting it. Not because of anything the big boys have announced (with the notable exception of Moog’s Sub Phatty) but because I will miss out on the chance to try out Antiquity Music‘s Wheelharp.

March 1, 2012 by claytonworbeck

This band features some old friends who are […]
