Hearts of the Hills
(Note: This is a combined presentation with fellow Humanities scholar Sherl Cederburg.)
Douglas and Cederburg are a musician/poet duo who will give you a glimpse of the Black Hills and the West. Stirred by stories in song and poetry, they will have you sitting around the campfire, riding the hills, and taking a walk back through history. Douglas’ strong beautiful voice and Cederburg’s “meadowlark in the morning crispness” blend well together, transitioning smoothly from song to spoken word.
