Loch Lomond will perform May 14 at the Sou’Wester Lodge.
Loch Lomond brings
indie rock to Seaview
SEAVIEW, Wash. — The
Sou’Wester Lodge will host
Portland band Loch Lomond
for a performance at 8 p.m.
Saturday, May 14.
In addition to employing
notable visceral and expert
melodic acrobatics, the co-
ed sextet of Loch Lomond
distinctly incorporates the
use of vibraphone, piano,
guitars, mellotron, clarinet,
lute, drums, bass and other
sonic treatments to foil the
arresting voice of lead
singer/multi-instrumentalist
Ritchie Young.
Young is able to switch
from high-pitched fragility
to alto thunder in the turn of
a phrase, yet he knows the
power of restraint, saving
vocal tornadoes for emotion-
al apexes buoyed by string
swells and moving arrange-
ments.
GEARHART — Trail’s
End Art Association will
offer a foraging basket-
ry workshop with Kathy
Karbo from 10 a.m. to 2
p.m. Saturday, Mary 21.
No experience is needed,
and all materials will be
provided.
Karbo brings her ener-
gy, creativity, experience
and skill as an instructor to
each learning opportunity.
She got started in
basketry when she lived
in Montclair, New Jersey.
A docent at the Israel
Crane House, she studied
colonial crafts, including
basketry. With expert help,
she began making baskets.
The experience changed
Karbo’s life, and she found
herself weaving up to 16
hours a day.
Foraging baskets grow
from long traditions of
basket making. During the
workshop, participants
will focus on structure
and technique to create
unconventional versions
of traditional gathering
baskets. Basket makers
will be free to explore em-
bellishment, texture, color
and mark to make the

a wide variety of materials
that can include cardboard,
handmade and laminated
papers, recycled metals,
wire, beads, leather and
found objects, partici-

become dried flower hold-
ers, gifts or whatever the
basket maker determines.
To register, email

The cost for the workshop
will be $50 for Trail’s
End members and $55
for non-members. Plan to
bring a sack lunch or shop
in nearby Gearhart for
carry out items.
