neighborhood songwriter showcase
every third friday @6pm
Since July 2023, we have hosted a monthly event at the Stones Throw Brewery where we feature three to four local songwriters. Each share their unique stories through music. Enjoy handcrafted tunes and a selection of local beer, wine, cider, and ginger ale. Whether you're a music enthusiast, a lover of lyrics, or simply looking for a great night out, come support a rotating roster of local artists and non-profits. Cheers to the magic of music and the connections it fosters!
The third Friday of every month at 6 pm! Free! Family and dog friendly!
Rob is a Pacific Northwest singer/songwriter whose acoustic-driven mix of indie folk, Americana, and folk-rock is powered by expressive, dynamic guitar work.
Celine is a Bellingham-based singer, fiddler, guitarist and songwriter known for her work in Old-Time and Celtic styles, as well as her original songs and tunes.  She performs locally in various ensembles and solo settings, bringing roots influences and spirited fiddling.
Cody is a folksinger originally from Yakima, WA. His specialty is folk music set in Washington State. He now lives in Whatcom and enjoys the amazing arts scene.
Jane Dove is a modern rockstar who puts a vulnerable shift on the modern-alternative rock sound. She writes raw, intimate lyrics backed by an emotional voice and dissonant melodies.
As a part of our dedication to the community that sustains us, we donate half of the proceeds from each event to various local non-profits on a rotating basis. Your attendance not only empowers these gifted artists but also supports important causes, infusing every note and chord with a deeper sense of purpose. Through shared commitment, we can create a meaningful impact and foster unity within our community.
This month all the tips will go directly to the Bellingham Food Bank who provide free food for members of our community facing food insecurity.
