Charly Markwart - Charly comes to the Smyth County Jam via Bluefield, WVA, where she is finishing her last year at Bluefield College majoring in Communications. She hopes to become a journalist. Charly was not born in WVA, but in Michigan. She says she came to our area for the music--that is surely one of the best reasons to come here, as we are rich in a musical heritage that is unequaled any where on planet earth! Charly is a good singer and plays mandolin, as well as some guitar. She speaks of her admiration of the original Carter Family, who are admired universally. We hope to see Charly back at the Smyth County Jam when ever she can come, she is a welcome addition and a fresh new face.
