Bruce and Gay Dalzell

Athens, Ohio

Bruce and Gay Dalzell can be described as a harmonious couple.

They were both nominated for the Best in Athens artist survey for their musical contributions. Both have been performing for about 35 years, they said in separate interviews.

Bruce – who has his own studio called I Love Brucie studios – plays what he dubs “contemporary folk,” although, he added, “I do everything my heart desires.”

As far as her most memorable performance, Gay had a difficult time deciding.

One that sticks out in her mind is her performance with the The Local Girls trio at the White House for Hilary Clinton’s 50th birthday.

“From the exposure we were invited to sing for the Christmas celebration,” Dalzell said.
