Stay, or come back, for the live music of Lindsie Feathers at 8pm in the lodge.
New updates posted here too: https://www.facebook.com/events/328554510844818/
“The songs are about love, the life journey, slowing down, the planet and it’s dwindling resources, liberating cultural belief systems and programming, being true to the self, connecting to our ancestors and family, releasing fear, making choices, and honoring our heroes,” Lindsie Feathers says. “Spreading your wings and trusting in the flight.”
“More to Love” opens the album harkening immediately back to Feathers’ VHS roots, evoking classic Loretta Lynn with a decidedly modern twist. “Be Good To Me” is a rabble-rousing anti-fracking protest song, while “Swine” is a self-empowerment anthem–very different songs, yet equally effective. The lovely “On Our Way” is a gentle reassurance buoyed by Feathers’ tasteful lead playing, while “Honey Bee” is a honky-tonk rave-up with Feathers’ gentle vocal taking on a sly, winking quality, putting her choir of backing vocalists through their paces.

Stripped down Americana Soul
A son of the flint hills of eastern Kansas, Nathan Earle brings a soulful depth to the singer-songwriter genre. His impassioned vocal delivery and introspective storytelling are unforgettable. Joining Nathan as the perfect compliment, the sweet and sultry vocals of Juliet Howard. The pair create a beautiful vocal landscape full of joy, love, and longing. This is a show not to be missed.
The Pining Hearts are a psych-surf-rock band out of Portland, OR and Austin, TX. Kivett Bednar from Land of the Living and Eddie Steele from Entendre Entendre started jamming in late 2015. The Pining Hearts officially became a band in January of 2016, playing their first show to a sold-out crowd at the Alberta Street Pub late March . The originals coming out of the group are dance-y and upbeat, but in the same breath have a dark and surf-y vibe.
Ghost to Falco is the musical project of Eric Crespo. Membership is fluid, but he is the constant. The first Ghost to Falco live concert took place in 2001 as part of a cross country tour/moving trip between North Carolina and Portland, OR, where Crespo resides.

Ghost to Falco has toured all over the United States and Europe numerous times and continues to do so.
