16 // COASTWEEKEND.COM Benefit for the PAC features Irish music Doktor Kaboom brings science, fun ASTORIA — “A bold sound from New England,” “an Irish music phenomenon in America,” and “pure exhilara- tion for the ears” are a few of the comments from recent re- views of the The Press Gang, a traditional Irish band from Portland, Maine, that will perform at 7 p.m. Friday, Feb. 10, at the Clatsop Community College Performing Arts Cen- ter, located at 588 16th St. The Press Gang fuses the talents of squeezebox player Christian “Junior” Stevens, fiddler Alden Robinson, flute-player and vocalist Hanz Araki, and guitarist Owen Marshall into a musical part- nership. The quartet blends their skill in traditional Irish music with their aptitude for other styles. The joy that these musicians pour into playing music together is infectious. The result is a sound at once energetic and sensitive, inno- vative and reverent. SUBMITTED PHOTO The Press Gang will perform a benefit concert Feb. 10 for the CCC Performing Arts Center. Flutist and vocalist Araki is no stranger to the North Coast. He was based for many years in Portland, Oregon, and recorded solo albums as well as several albums with Kathryn Claire. Araki has performed locally at Mc- Menamins Sand Trap Pub, KALA, Fort George Brewery, the Peninsula Arts Center, and as a soloist with the North Coast Symphonic Band at the Liberty Theater. Admission is $15 for adults and $10 for youth. Pro- ceeds benefit the PAC. Tickets are available at the door and online at www.littleseare- cords.com.
