Sing Out for Utah Bellingham: Saturday, May 3rd
A benefit concert to help with medical expenses for Utah Phillips.
I'll be participating in two benefits for our beloved Utah Phillips. His illness is preventing his being able to travel to perform, and as all of us who have done this trade know, this is a drastic setback. Medical bills have been high. So please come out and support Utah. If you don't know his work, check out his music on ITunes, or visit his web site. He's truly one of the finest, funniest performers and songwriters I know

The voice, as the original human instrument, is a true and gracious vehicle for compassion and comfort. The choirs provide opportunities for women to share the sacred gifts of their voices at life's thresholds. For more information on the national choirs, and where they are located, visit:
