The Mon-Earth Benefit Concert helps to raise funds
and awareness for the 20 plus organizations who are working to improve our local
environment.
This third annual concert will feature three unique
musical performances:
1. Dulcie Taylor (and her band) from Washington, DC
(via South Carolina).
Dirty Linen magazine writes "Dulcie Taylor is a gifted
writer...she also has a compelling voice she employs with nuance and emotion."
Her performances are powerfully direct and down-to-earth. She has won two
Washington Area Music Awards and her music has received substantial airplay
nationwide.
2. Buddy Mondlock from Nashville, TN
Buddy is a very successful songwriter whose songs have
been covered by numerous performers including Guy Clark, Janis Ian and Nanci
Griffith. He recently toured extensively as part of a trio with Art Garfunkel
and Maia Sharp, in support of a recording that the three wrote together. He
sings with a gentle passion that draws the listener into the poetic stories that
he creates.
3. Rachel Eddy & The Morgantown
Rounders
The Morgantown Rounders are an Old-Time string band of
eclectic proportions. They are traditionalists pushing the envelope of
tradition, infusing high-energy square dance exhilaration into a mix of vintage
songs. For the first time, the Rounders will be performing in traditional
old-time style around one microphone.
Local personality, Barbara Walker, will be the
emcee.
