It's time for "A Band Called Honalee"
Don't miss this salute to Peter, Paul, & Mary, and other Folk Artists of the 60's. Thursday, October 15 at 7pm.

If you been watching our promotion videos, you've maybe noticed that there are different people performing in some of them. There are actually about twelve artists who perform or have performed in this group. Depending on who's available, where and when. They often perform with the same trio (and sometimes a bass player accompanies). Occasionally a new person might sub in and they get to work with them for the first time, at a concert.

One of the former performers Sarah Randall Hunt was recently in “1923”, the spinoff of “Yellowstone”. ( Episodes 4-7?)
In our promotion videos, she's next to the two guys in black suits.

They'll be doing an outreach earlier in the day for us with Payson Students also.

It'll be fun to learn who the artists are at the concert. Join us for a fun acoustical night of folk music.
