This article is part of a project through Kennett High School in which I (Joseph DellaValla) interview people connected to music in the Mount Washington Valley so I can share their stories. I invite my mom (Jessica DellaValla), who is not a musician, as well as my siblings (Molly and John), who are, to share their perspectives as well. If you have a recommendation on someone to interview or if you’d like to connect with me, please email me at dellavallatrio@gmail.com.
