About The Gertrudes

Banjo picker, Annie Clifford, had a dream about The Gertrudes. She told guitar picker, Greg Tilson, about the dream and he picked up the phone and called up all The Gertrudes in her dream. The Gertrudes then assembled themselves in the Kingston School of Music, and made beautiful music together. The rest, as they say, is history.
