Floyd Hershberger along with his wife Joyce had the dream of opening their own small music store and running it as a family business. The store was established in 1956 in Nebraska and is now being run by their son Brad. Along the way they were witnesses to the good old days of the Beatles and the rise of the band instrument movement in the public school systems. They also withstood some difficult times during ups and downs in the economy. Through it all Floyd recalled “We stayed in it because we enjoyed our customers and what little we could do to bring music into their lives.”
