This is the poster David Powell did for us:
The musician line-up includes local recording artist Spencer Lewis, along with Bethel’s own Scott Paulson on electric bass (Panhandlers); Daniel Haley on mandolin and guitar (Two Shoes Off, Mr. Casual); and the high mountain vocals of Carol Hausner (One Morning Fair), whose Love Gone By won First Place at the prestigious Chris Austin Songwriting Contest at Merlefest in 2009. Incidently, we have a great arrangement to that song and it will be well represented that evening. Scott is easily one of the best bass players in our area or anywahere and sounds better than ever; Dan is ripping his 8 strings with his tasteful abandon and Carol is an ever engaging vocalist both in leads and harmony - and some fine rhythm guitar too.
The concert is also a reunion for Spencer, Dan, and Scott who performed in a band called The Thrufters in 2003 and released a live in studio CD called Song of Stone. With Dan leaving for Portland, Oregon in a few months, the concert is a chance to take some great music even further on.
You can hear the song April Healing in its entirety on the home page.
It's also a reunion for Carol and Spencer as they perform some of their material from "One Morning Fair" that sounds totally flush with the added instrumentation of mandolin and bass; they hope to release their first CD in the fall of 2011.
A suggested admission donation of $10, includes a free vocals or instrumental Spencer Lewis CD.
