Ted Yoder

I fell in love with the hammered dulcimer in the 80’s but I didn’t own one until 1998 when my wife surprised me with one using our wedding gift money. In 2010, I earned recognition by winning the U.S. National Hammered Dulcimer Championship. So I packed up my family and took my music coast to coast. In 2016 my video of Everybody Wants to Rule the World went viral - suddenly, millions knew my name. Today, I continue to teach lessons online, play music with my band, and produce music for advertising and film.
