3. Below is the 12/22/2020 Mollie B & husband Ted YouTube virtual Christmas music video program with 2 guests musicians. Mollie & Ted are two nice & very talented musicians do these YT video shows every Tuesday evening from their Ohio home studio for 1.5 hours. Both are from musical families, with Czech ancestry, and so play all kinds of music. Mollie sings & plays 15 instruments with Ted being an exceptional accordionist plus singing fairly well. Their nice, young guest musician Alex looks like Tom Cruise & has an excellent singing voice.

4. Below is the 12/29/2020 Mollie B. & Ted Tuesday weekly YT virtual music video program. It is a festive & interesting show because 3 younger musicians are participating. Note, Mollie & Ted were to play at the 2020 Oregon Mt. Angel Oktoberfest & the Wallowa Alpenfest but were canceled. They sing my favorite waltz “Fliege mit mir in die Heimat”. This famous German song is @ the 20 min. spot on the below YT video. Barb & I used to dance to this waltz many times while my brothers played it in their IV Tempos Band at the Pythian Hall.
