We are very happy to announce we’ll be welcoming back Dave Curley to Oak Mountain Hidewaway! This time he’ll be performing solo. This will be a special treat as we will get to hear more of his gorgeous voice with songs from his album A Brand New Day as well as newly written and arranged songs.

On May 31, 2018 we’re offering a  Kids Music Workshop
Workshop at 5PM | Potluck | Concert at 6PM

The Bright Siders is a project created by Kristin Andreassen and a child psychologist named Dr. Kari Groff – the project focuses on songs about emotions (being afraid of the dark, moving to a new town, divorce, bullying) for children and their families. For this fun and interactive workshop, Kristin and her accompanist Lauren Balthrop will use these songs as a starting point to incorporate games, dancing / hand clapping, group discussion (“how do YOU feel when these things happen? And what do YOU do about it?”), and sing-alongs. The class will culminate in teaching a song to the group (complete with harmonies / parts, shakers, and other basic rhythm instruments* and instruction on how these work) that they will have the opportunity to perform for their friends and families at the evening concert.

* Children with other basic instruments (guitar, ukulele, banjo) are encouraged to bring them along, and depending on the general level of the class, Kristin and Lauren can help them learn to follow along as well.

There are multiple Family Packages for this event. Ticket Information
