We are excited to welcome some new luthiers to the family at Weed Patch Music Company - Bill and Liza LaCasse of Appalachian Spirit Folk Instruments in Taylors, South Carolina have been building these beautiful zithers since 2013 and sharing the joy of music with aspiring musicians of all ages, regardless of skill level or ability. Continuing a tradition that found its way to the Appalachian region almost two centuries ago, they create handmade instruments of the highest quality which offer instant musical success and enjoyment.

The beautiful Plum Southern Pine Zither shown above is made of a wood in softer range of hardwoods and is very popular in the creation of beautiful Appalachian mountain cabins and furnishings. They also make gorgeous zithers with a warm, mellow tone!

Poplar and Southern Pine not only make well-crafted and beautiful sounding zithers, but they are also a lovel “canvas” for original artwork by Liza LaCasse of Appalachian Spirit Folk Instruments! Come and check out all of their beautiful instruments at Weed Patch Music Company!
