WESTLINE
John Klingelhoffer and Nancy Dunlop play eclectic duets featuring harmonies, guitar, and flute, ranging from classic rock to Americana to John's and Nancy's originals. They played together in Sons of the New Amish (SONA) for five years before becoming a musical duo, and are both still in SONA today. Nancy's lyrics, vocals, and flute are featured on two tracks on The Tonellis album "The Whiskey Priest", which is beautifully mixed and produced with the contributions of many talented musicians.
