Gretchen Hewitt lives in Concrete. She is a world class opera singer, music teacher and beautiful person (inside and out!). Gretchen and I got to know each other last year when we collaborated during a Murder Mystery Trivia night at the Concrete Theater. Cheri played with us too, and they both play together at the Hub every Friday at 5:30pm. Gretchen teaches voice, piano, violin and guitar at her house. You can contact her at gretchen.concretemusic@gmail.com
Here are some links to the things we chatted about in the episode or things I mentioned in the intro:
Gretchen's performances can be found on her Youtube channel here.
6/30 - The Olson Brothers at the Eagle Haven Winery: Tickets here.
7/1 - Lazy Acres and The Enthusiasts: Tickets here.
7/8 - The Dimes and Zach Michaud at the Concrete Theatre (Tix $10 @ door)
7/8 - Jack Mattingly's new band, Turnkey Runner at The Conway Muse: Tickets here.
I actually didn't talk about Zach Michaud very much, except in the intro, but because I'm the president of the Sedro Woolley chapter of the Zach Michaud Fan Club, I need to remind you go to listen to his new album that I listen to often: The D is Silent on Spotify
Buy some merch so we can match! He plays a lot so check out his fb page for his rad posters and go see a show.
Love my intro song? Check out Clay Work. He is incredibly talented. He also hosts Trivia at Lyman Tavern on Tuesdays, and at District Brewing on Wednesdays.
