A San Marcos couple is sharing their love for music with the next generation. In this Zevely Zone, I met a match made in musical heaven.
Dave Moyer and Cathi Mangione-Moyer love music and each other in about that order. Dave and Cathi met when they were children in the state of Washington, but went their separate ways until years later when Dave made a phone call. “I said, Cathi do you know who this is and she said yes. ‘It’s Dave Moyer’, I said I’ve been in love with you since you were 14, will you marry me and she said yes and that was it,” said Dave.
They’ve been making music ever since, Dave with big bands like the New Christy Minstrels from 1980-1983. Cathi has performed in an assortment of bands herself and is a musical genius on the piano.
At 72 years old, their songs may live forever; but Dave and Cathi say they won’t, which is why they’re teaching the next generation at the American Music Academy that music should be fun.
