DeeAnn has been the illustrious manager of Zeke's on the Square since October of 2000. She has played violin & fiddle since age 9, and later on took up mandolin, clawhammer banjo, guitar and few a other odds and ends. She also performs in a number of bands at the Ozark Folk Center (a few with Albee!, see below) and teaches workshops, but her favorite place to be is behind the counter at Zeke's -- If you need anything special ordered or have any questions just give her a call, she'll be happy to help!

Danny Thomas has built, restored and repaired fiddles, mandolins, dobros and mountain banjos for several years. He'll talk "shop" at the drop of a hat and jump at the chance to sing a little "ROLLIN IN MY SWEET BABY'S ARMS" with you when you visit us at Zeke's on the Square. Look for Dan and his Whoa Mule! Quartet jamming at Zeke's or performing at the Ozark Folk Center when you're in Mtn. View. "The best thang to pick a man UP, is to fiddle a good hoeDOWN."

Albee Tellone is over a half century old and it shows - in his experience with mandolins and guitars that is ! He has been playing both for over 40 years and doing setups and repairs in almost as many years. He is also an amateur music historian of sorts. Mainly he enjoys visiting with customers from all over the country to swap stories. He and co-worker Danny Thomas have been working at Zeke's and the Ozark Folk Center instrument shops on alternating days for the past 5 years. A longtime friend of Danny's mentor, instrument repair wizard Mr. Hilton Lytle, Albee has learned "a thing or two" from both of those gentlemen. He'll greet you with a smile !
