About Folding Mr. Lincoln
"Nancy and I have been married for a little over 30 years," said Harry Mestyanek. "We met through playing music together back in 1973. We married in 1977 and performed a bit as an acoustic duo for a few years; mainly weddings and background music for small receptions and gatherings." Raising a family and pursuing their own career paths put their performing interests on the back-burner for several years, though they continued to play and sing together casually at home and with friends now and then. It was after Nancy's mother passed away in February 2006 that they decided to officially form a band and give the music another try.
"For both of us, our general interest in listening to music and wanting to understand and engage the songs we listen to inspired us to become musicians and songwriters," Harry said. "We both have great respect for singer-songwriters. They are at the top of our list, more than athletes, actors, fine artists, or politicians." - Bart Mendoza; The Peninsula Beacon; April 24, 2008
