Saturday, November 1, 7:30 p.m., Orcas Island Grange Hall
— from Bill Buchan —
Tom Rawson and Carl Allen, both well-known to Orcas audiences separately, are now getting together for a music-filled evening of humor, history and harmonies. They will be performing Saturday evening, November 1st, 7:30 PM, at the Orcas Grange Hall.
Tom, who now calls Orcas Island home, is a long-time folk troubadour, who performs with guitar and banjo in the style of Pete Seeger. You’ll be singing along to his songs of humor, peace and inspiration. Tom will be joined on his set by Ellen van der Hoeven, songwriter, vocalist, and penny whistler from Vancouver, British Columbia.
Carl Allen, who has been performing folk music since 1959, has visited Orcas many times, as half of The Wanderers, and in his Woody Guthrie persona. Lots of folk music fun– Tune up your vocal chords; you’ll need ’em!
Suggested Admission: $15. Info: 360-317-7498
