RAYMOND, WASH. — John Fogerty could have been writing
about the Washington Coast when he wrote “Who’ll Stop
the Rain.”
If you’ve ever wondered about Fogerty’s take on rain,
“Proud Mary,” “Midnight Special” and other classics from
Creedence Clearwater Revival, wonder no more! Vocalist
Randy Linder brings his tribute to CCR to the Raymond
Theatre, 2 p.m. Sunday, July 8, courtesy of Sunday After-
noon Live.
Linder and his band have entertained audiences from
California to New York with the beloved hits that came
from CCR between 1968 and 1972 and a few of Fogerty’s
solo hits.

has attained international status since developing this
salute to Fogerty and CCR in 2000. Past performances
include several Las Vegas engagements, shows in Guam

ASTORIA — The Nashville husband-and-wife singing
duo of John and Michaela Lemonis, performing as Cros-
by Lane, will provide music and stories from the Missis-
sippi Delta during a concert Saturday, July 7, at the First
Presbyterian Church in Astoria.
The concert begins at 7 p.m. in the church sanctuary at
1103 Grand Ave. Admission is free, with a love offering
taken for the artists.
The duo has taken the name of Crosby Lane to honor
hymn writer Fanny Crosby.
The duo has crafted the laid-back sensibilities of a
“Nashville songwriters night”-style presentation. They
share the stories behind the songs and play fresh rendi-
tions of old favorites, including church hymns, classic
folk and pop songs, along with originals by John and Mi-
chaela that feature unforgettable characters and stories.
Originally from Greenville, Miss., John Lemonis grew
up steeped in the music and stories of the Mississippi
Delta. After moving to Nashville, John would become a
multi-Dove Award, SGMA and Diamond award-nominat-
ed songwriter, arranger and artist.
Michaela Lemonis is originally from Anchorage,
Ala., and has played multiple instruments since she was
a child. Her great uncle, Fluke Holland, played drums
with Johnny Cash for 40 years. He was also the drum-
mer for the Million Dollar Quartet recording, which
featured Cash, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl
Perkins.
