Orcas Islander Mandy Troxel will perform at noon on August 28 in the church. After a decade of writer’s block, and having given up performing for what she believed was forever, Troxel surprised herself. Having fallen into what could be described as one of those: “dark nights of the soul”, songs started coming. A trusted friend and musician implored her to share them: “These songs are sustenance. You can’t keep them from people. People need to eat.”
Bring a bag lunch to eat out on the lawn following the concerts. Admission is free and open to all. Donations are accepted and will go to the Virgil Cleveland Scholarship Fund. This scholarship provides the opportunity for a promising music student from Orcas to attend a music camp in Bellingham.
