I discovered his great music quite accidentally while walking in the bookstore in Santa Barbara. After being excited I bought his two CD's which I listen very often. It is a Pure Relaxation in Time !

@musiclandify look up the Dusty Strings company. They run a tad expensive but this wonderful instrument is worth the cost.

Nice rendition. That tune is called "The Gael", by Dougie Maclean.

scott williams is really quite talented. i live in vegas and i've seen him at the ren fair here a couple of times, i would always look for his booth first just so i could listen to his music to get that medieval feeling going on. this is one of my favorite songs of course :) i even bought one of his first cd's, or at least i think it was his first: The Road To Lisdunvarna. <--something to that effect haha. anyways, great stuff. i miss the ren fair.

Saw him over at Disney Downtown today and he played this song. It was so enchanting!! I really like this song he played. :)

@musiclandify -you can buy the ham. dulcimer from master works, or james jones inst., or you can also go on ebay and look-they cost anywhere from 600/700/1000--this does not always include the hammers or music stand-you will also need a tuner & the wrench for tuning

Hmm... I listed his web sites there in the description... did you try e-mail addresses from those? That's all I have. Good luck asking a favor, he told me he is no longer booking weddings.

What is he using for the drone? Who is playing the second part, or is that all prerecorded?

He had recorded his own backing music, playing on a CD in his tent for backup.

I don't know of any Hammered Dulcimer teachers in San Diego, but there are probably a few (perhaps try the Junior colleges in the music department? Guitar teachers may know of some.) Scott Williams teaches, but he's moved up to L.A. area. Good luck! It's a gorgeous sounding instrument.
