Blues and Brews
returns June 26-27
Stevenson’s signature event returns for its 22nd year,
June 26-27, when Gorge Blues and Brews Festival hits the
Skamania County Fairgrounds, 650 SW Rock Creek Drive.
The festival blends music, craft brews and food.
The Friday night segment features all things local from
6 to 10 p.m. Walking Man Brewery, Backwoods Brewing
and Thunder Island Brewing will be pouring brews and
there will be a selection of local wine. Bring your boogie
shoes because some of the best of our home grown musi-
cians, Johnny Lyle Dodds and Skamaniaxe, will have you
on your feet all evening. Admission is free, and camping is
available onsite if you want to come early and stay late.
Campsites can be reserved in advance via
www.tickettoma-to.com.
On Saturday, the festival runs from noon until 10 p.m.
and features 16 regional craft breweries including the
brand new Beerded Brothers of Vancouver, as well as five
local wineries and cideries.
Continuous live blues music will fill the air with bands
on two stages; this year’s line-up includes headliner
Patrick Lamb and the Funkified Band. The day will be
filled with the sounds of Lloyd Jones and the Struggle,
Jimmy Lloyd Rea and the Switch Masters, Bill Rhoades
and the Party Kings/Queens featuring D.K. Stewart, The
Bottle Neck Blues Band featuring Robbie Laws, Rae Gor-
don and Big Monti. Closing the night with true boogie
music is J.R. Sims. In between the sets on Riverview Com-
munity Bank main stage, local musicians and bands will
perform on the Big River Grill stage.
Admission is open to those 21 years and over only on
both Friday and Saturday; no minors will be allowed on
the festival grounds. The cost for admission on Saturday
is $20 per person and includes a commemorative beer mug
or wine glass.

‘Live Music on the Terrace’ CD helps musicians in need
More than a dozen North-
west bands have contributed
songs to Maryhill Winery’s
2015 “Live Music on The Ter-
race Vol. 2,” a CD that show-
cases artists scheduled to
play at the venue this sum-
mer.
Featuring folk, jazz and
blues bands the CD is a
unique collaboration by the
artists and the winery, and
all proceeds benefit the non-
profit Sweet Relief founda-
tion, a national organization
that provides financial assis-
tance to musicians who are
facing illness, disability or
age-related problems.
Last year, the winery used
the CD as a promotional tool
for Wine Club members, but
CD sales allowed the winery
to donate $1,000 to the fund.
This year, about 4,000 CDs
were produced.
The idea behind the CD
was to further promote and
showcase a selection of
artists performing during
the year on Maryhill’s ter-
raced venue. The winery
owners wanted to give back
to the artists in a unique way,
and create more exposure for
the band’s music, as well as
support musicians in by do-
nating a part of the proceeds
to Sweet Relief.
The 2015 “Live Music on
the Terrace” CD is $6 and is
available for purchase in the
Maryhill Winery Tasting
Room.
Live music on the Terrace
lineup happens on weekends
through September, from 1-5
p.m. at Maryhill Winery.
There’s no cover charge and
the venue is family-friendly.

Steve Hale at The Pines

Friday, June 26 6-9 p.m. A singer/songwriter with a
soul edge, Steve delivers his brand of blue-eyed-soul-
Americana-pop in the tradition of Daryl Hall, Sam Cooke

rich, sultry glowing and delicious.

Memoir workshop at Klindt’s
Oregon Book Award Winner Jay Ponteri will be at
Klindt’s in The Dalles on Saturday, July 11, from 10 a.m.-2
p.m. for a memoir writing workshop. $40. Limited seat-
ing. “For me the joy of memory-based writing arises
from recalling a memory I could not have imagined and
did not plan on recalling before that present moment of
composition. I’m talking about working from inadvertent
memory. This kind of memory rises to the surface of
consciousness without intention or design on my part. I
don’t reach for memory—I let memory reach for me.”

HIGHEST QUALITY
Auditions planned June 28-29
for two `art of protest’ plays
Directors Bill Weiler and
Lynda Dallman will hold au-
ditions for the plays Inherit
the Wind and The Night
Thoreau Spent in Jail at Co-
lumbia Center for the Arts in
the Studio at 6 p.m. on Sun-
day, June 28 and Monday,
June 29. Both plays are based
on actual events, including
the “Monkey Trial” over
teaching of theory of evolu-
tion, and the civil disobedi-
ence of writer Henry David
Thoreau.
“These plays were written
by Jerome Lawrence and
Robert E. Lee as co-play-
wrights. As directors we
think they share a common
theme which they call ‘The
Art of Protest’,” Dallman
said.
Scripts will be available
for checkout at the CCA
Gallery, 213 Cascade St.
Plays for Nonprofits pro-
ductions are scheduled for
the weekend of Aug.21-23
and Aug.t 27-29. The direc-
tors need a dozen men and
six women of all ages: a cou-
ple of teenagers, a few 20-30,
several 30-50 and a few 50-
plus.
