Performances:
Lynn Biddick May 9, 7:30 pm.
Ghost in the Bed Album Release Concert Tickets are $15 in advance. Biddick has now returned to La Crosse, where she continues her multi‐tasking ways as a singer, songwriter, choir director, piano, voice and music teacher, and harmonium player in the Coulee Celtic Band. Ghost In The
Bed is her first full‐length album.
Tracy Grammer May 15
For the uninitiated, Tracy Grammer rose to acclaim as one half of the duo, Dave Carter & Tracy Grammer, called “one of the fastest‐rising acts in folk music” by the Boston Globe. Three years after Carter’s sudden death, Grammer emerged with an extraordinary talent that continues to
touch those who hear her. Today, Grammer digs deep into the spirit of Carter’s poetic verses and haunting melodies to color her music with textures and flourishes that blur the boundaries
of categorization. Tickets $15/Members, $18/Nonmembers.
