Musical Memories

Ronda Armstrong

Wanda Armstrong and her daughter, Ronda, recently visited the Nashville StoryBooth. Wanda’s dad and husband were both musicians and her daughter inherited their talent. During the interview, they harmonized on one of Wanda’s dad’s favorite songs, “Blue Moon of Kentucky.” Wanda fondly remembered how, after a gig, her dad would invite band members to their house. She loved hearing them play bluegrass tunes by Bill Monroe and Hank Williams, and remembered her father singing the song, “I Wish I was Single Again.”
