Three For Silver represents a curious hybrid of acoustic music. The twin melodies of Willo Ser- tain’s vocals and Greg Allison’s violin glide atop of chugging polyrhythms of Lucas Warford’s homemade bass instruments and the idiosyncratic style in which they are played. Described by Baby Gramps as “the acid baby of Tom Waits ad Vicgtor Wooten,” Three For Silver combines a gritty aesthet- ic, world-folk traditions, and vir- tuosic technique with a modern songwriting sense.

Karen Gale to display art at the Hoffman Center MANZANITA — The Hoffman Center for the Arts will host a reception for Bay City artist Kar- en Gale from 3 to 5 p.m. Friday, Jan. 1. The reception will feature 30 of Gale’s paintings under the theme “Seeing the Light.” She will be on hand to discuss her work and the show. Refresh- ments will be served. The artist said her oil paintings “examine the idea of searching for, ¿nding, and seeing light physical- ly, emotionally, and spiritually.” The works will remain on display at the center through January. Gale has taught for eight years and is experienced with both beginning and experienced artists. She lives in Bay City, teaches art, paints, and is illus- trating a children’s book. Gale’s oil painting classes at the Hoffman Center were so popular this fall she will contin- ue them on Thursdays, starting Thursday, Jan. 7, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. New students are wel- come.
