SEAVIEW, WASH. — The Sou’wester
Lodge presents the Glass Heart String
Choir, 8 to 10 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 1.
Lush and layered, playing with surging
vocals over baroque musical sheets,
Glass Heart String Choir weaves intricate
stories that express leveling doubt. Pieced
together by two classically trained com-
posers, their musical offerings ground
listeners in reality while flying them away
with wonderment.
Then, from 8 to 10 p.m. Sunday, Sept.
2, Talia Keys plays the Lodge.
Keys is a genre-crossing musical pow-
erhouse who brings her brand of soul-
funk-rock-n’-roll with unique vocals and
storytelling. Her energy has been com-
pared to Janis Joplin’s bluesy rawness
and Jimi Hendrix’s fire.
Both concerts are free and open to the
public.

CANNON BEACH — Astoria’s
finest folk rockers invade Can-
non Beach for a free concert in
the park Sunday, Sept. 2.
The show features the roots
rock of Brian Bovenizer and
the New Old Stock, and the
sweet acoustic folk of The
Hackles.
The Hackles are Kati
Claborn and Luke Ydstie,
renown for their work with
Blind Pilot. As The Hackles,
the duo delight in lush, inti-
mate vocal harmony.
This summer has been busy
for The Hackles. In July they
released a new record, “The
Twilight’s Calling it Quits,”
performed a run of shows with
Blind Pilot as the band cele-
brates the 10th anniversary of
their renown record “3 Rounds
and a Sound,” and toured the
Northwest as a duo in August.
While equally reverent
toward American folk tradi-
tions, Bovenizer and the New
Old Stock are, by comparison,
more scruffy, thumping and
electric.
Over classic country twang
and burning barroom rock,
Bovenizer delivers earnest
odes to the North Coast. It’s
something like a feel-good,
life-affirming, boot-scootin’
barn dance.
The New Old Stock in-
cludes Luke Ydstie on bass
and backup vocals (really, the
guy can harmonize!), Olaf Yd-
stie on drums, Jamie Greenan
on pedal steel and Jeff Munger
on electric guitar.
The free, family-friendly
concert begins with The Hack-
les at 5:30 p.m.
Attendees are encouraged
to bring blankets, low-backed
chairs and fully stocked picnic
baskets. Dogs, frisbees, soccer
balls and the like are wel-
come, too.
The park is located in
downtown Cannon Beach,
northeast of the Chamber of
Commerce at Second and
Spruce streets.
The concert is produced by
the Tolovana Arts Colony and
made possible by a Commu-
nity Grant from the City of
Cannon Beach.
