Doors open at 6:30 p.m. at the Odd Fellows Hall, 105 NE First St. The music starts at 7 p.m. Admission is $10, and beverage service will be available.
The concert features three songwriters sharing their original work in a round-robin format at the historic Enterprise Odd Fellows Hall.
Randi Marie Shaw
Growing up in a rural community surrounded and inspired by nature, Shaw began singing and playing music alongside her mother, also a singer-songwriter, which ignited a lifelong love for music. She is a multi-instrumentalist and primarily plays piano and guitar while lending her voice to a variety of genres. She has recorded multiple albums with her bands and has a solo album on the horizon.
Tracy Spring
Based in Bellingham, Washington, Spring has played in folk venues and festivals throughout North America and Australia for over four decades, often combining her musical life with social justice work. She’ll be playing songs from three of her pandemic projects: “Grandmother Tales” (a series of children’s picture books based on her song lyrics, with themes of kindness, courage, and caring for our beautiful planet), “Tales of the Far North” and “Songs of Hope and Humanity.”
Karyn Ann
Portland-based introspective singer-songwriter Karyn Ann sings both revenge and redemption, winding her way with unflinching honesty through the stories that define us. She’s been nationally recognized at such festivals as the Rocky Mountain Folks Festival (Colorado), Red Ants Pants Music Festival (Montana) and Tuscon Folk Festival (Arizona), as well as regional festivals like Oregon Country Fair and Portland’s Folk Festival. Her latest EP “Consequence of Fear” (2024) “marks a stylistic shift toward an indie-rock sound and explores themes of fear, uncertainty, and personal growth, reflecting Ann’s journey during a period of change and unpredictability,” according to a press release. This year brings her third studio album recorded in Muscle Shoals, Alabama.
