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!
Nat Budin is a singer, songwriter, and producer in the Seattle area, making heartfelt comedy pop and folk music. He's also been a member of the bands Stranger Ways, The Crisis Center, and Klezmoratorium.
Flip Breskin, co-founder of Puget Sound Guitar Workshop, hosted house concerts in town for almost 50 years. Zeke Hoskin writes outrageous, funny songs that other people perform.
Rob Lopresti writes mostly funny songs. They have been recorded by Tom Rawson, Rebel Voices, Flip Breskin, and himself, among others.
Pete is Bellingham songwriting royalty. Clever, heartfelt with killer politics. We love having Pete whenever he can make it.
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 Foodbank
