neighborhood songwriter showcase
every third friday @6pm
Once a month, we host an event at the Stones Throw Brewery where we feature three to four local songwriters, each sharing their unique stories through music. Enjoy handcrafted tunes and a selection of local beer, wine, cider, and ginger ale. Whether you're a music enthusiast, a lover of lyrics, or simply looking for a great night out, come support a rotating roster of local artists and non-profits. Cheers to the magic of music and the connections it fosters!
The third Friday of every month at 6 pm! Free! Family and dog friendly!
Kyle is a Bellingham based singer-songwriter who write songs in the classic country tradition with 21st themes.
Elena shapes songs like clay pots, carving and glazing new colors designed to appeal to your senses. Her music soothes restless spirits and calms the tides, resurfacing and reflecting hearts alike.
Claire is a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter based in Bellingham. Her music is influenced deeply by Celtic and Americana traditions, as well as the natural world.
Paul has been writing and performing in the area for a long time. He's a multi-instrumentalust and plays too many styles to add here. But he rocks. Check him out!
As a part of our dedication to the community that sustains us, we donate half of the proceeds from each event to various local non-profits on a rotating basis. Your attendance not only empowers these gifted artists but also supports important causes, infusing every note and chord with a deeper sense of purpose. Through shared commitment, we can create a meaningful impact and foster unity within our community.
This month we are supporting local community radio station KMRE -- 88.3 on your FM dial. A local treasure, KMRE is a 100% volunteer run, community-oriented, low-power radio licensee telling the stories and playing the music of the community. They now feature a monthly segment on the Songwriter Showcase!
