Published 3:29 pm Monday, May 6, 2024

The 18th season of Tunesmith Night wraps up on Saturday, May 11 with performances by three singer-songwriters.

Tunesmith Night, produced by the Wallowa Valley Music Alliance, features songwriters sharing their original work in a round-robin format, at the historic Enterprise Odd Fellows Hall, 105 NE First St.

Music starts at 7 p.m. Admission is $10. Drink service is provided.

Musicians featured at Saturday’s performance are Joel Chadd, Meredith Lane, and Ava Honey.

Here’s more about the three performers:

• Chadd writes and plays songs that are brutally honest but still open-hearted. His melodies dance between soulful vocals and passionate guitar playing.

• Based between Nashville and Joseph, Lane is an alternative country and folk artist who has amassed an impressive tour footprint covering the Midwest, Southwest, East Coast, and West Coast. She’s known for her genre-defying versatility, from folk ballads to punk-rock anthems.

• Honey wakes most mornings in Boise, Idaho. She is a songwriter, guitar and bass player in Idyltime. She’s also a square dance caller and finds passion and joy in nature, pranks and home-cooked meals.

This edition of Tunesmith Night is sponsored by Roger and Lynn Averbeck.
