Salmon Brook Music Series

Susan Werner
With Secial Guest Pamela Means

October 11, 2019

Celebrated performing songwriter Susan Werner has made a name for herself coast to coast. From her 1995 major label folk/rock debut “Last of the Good Straight Girls” to her 2007 collection of agnostic gospel hymns “The Gospel Truth” to her 2017 travelogue “An American In Havana,” Werner writes ambitious concept albums with subject matter and sounds to match. Spring 2019 brings a fresh set of songs from Werner, this time a New Orleans inspired piano throwdown entitled “NOLA.”

We couldn't be more excited to welcome Susan as the opening show of the 2019-2020 Salmon Brook Music Series.

Pamela Means will be opening the show and we're in for a treat. Here's what Oregon Live has to say:
"So what sets [Pamela Means] apart...? For starters, Means plays a snarling, energetic guitar. She's got chops - more than the other gentle pickers of her ilk will ever have. Means' voice is hard-wired to her heart: emotional, raw, angry when it needs to be, yet supple and warm as an embrace. The truth may not always be pretty, but Means is a stunningly effective messenger."

Doors at 7:00. Show at 7:30

Vance Gilbert

November 15, 2019

Vance Gilbert burst onto the singer/songwriter scene in the early 1990s when the buzz started spreading in the folk clubs of Boston about an ex-multicultural arts teacher who was knocking 'em dead at open mikes. Word of the Philadelphia-area bred performer quickly spread to New York City. Then Shawn Colvin invited Glibert to be a special guest on her Fat Cit national tour. Vance Gilbert took audiences across the country by storm.
Eight accomplished albums later, Vance continues to refine his unlikely union of humor, virtuosity, and the unexpected. Whether with classic, original Songwriting or ageless interpretations of covers, his is a presentation steeped in deep humanism and bravery, stunning artistry and soul, and contagious unbridled joy - inarguably the blue ribbons that tie and seal the seemingly impossible package that is .... Vance Gilbert.
