(Springfield, MO) -- In the last several years, we've taken you to lots of local jam sessions where area musicians get together for some good old fashioned fun. We even found one such gathering at a truck stop off I-44.

But one place where they pick and play might just take the cake. Here's a snippet of some barbershop bop, in this week's Oliver's Ozarks report.

The phrase 'just a little off the top' has probably been spoken hundreds of thousands of times at The Barber Shop at Sunshine and Fremont. They've been snipping and clipping there since 1957.

"And it's really kind of a neat thing because when we bought the shop, it was all original." says shop owner Sharon Kizziah-Holmes.

Sharon and her husband Dennis bought the place about 10 years ago. They stay busy with regulars and new customers stopping in for a trim and some talk.

"We do haircuts. We fix world problems." says Sharon.

But there's something else they do at this barbershop and you have to hear it to believe it.  Sharon and Dennis, and even the customers, are known to pull out a guitar and make a little music.

"Sometimes I'll be playing and somebody will walk in and they play a little bit. Give them a guitar and let them go to work." says shop owner Dennis Holmes.

Sharon and Dennis are retired musicians and spent years touring on the road. So when they settled down and bought the barbershop, they wanted to bring that part of their life into the new livelihood. Customers may come for the haircuts, but they stay for the songs.

"Just like this morning, we had a gentleman come in who writes his own stuff and he sat down and played and sang for us." says Sharon.

"Got an old boy who Sharon cuts his hair, been cutting his hair for 15 years. Johnny Morris. You might know him. He loves it." says Dennis.

So while it's not quite a quartet, the barbershop duet is proof that you can have fun at work. And anyone is welcome to stop by for a turn in the chair and some time in the spotlight.

"There's some people who shouldn't pick guitars and sing, we know that. But I'm not stopping them. We all had to start somewhere." says Dennis.

"We just have always had music in our lives. And we have a lot of friends who are musicians and they come by and bring their instruments. And we just pick and grin quite a bit." says Sharon.

Dennis and Sharon are such music fans that they built a recording studio in their home where they help customers and friends record their own CD's.
