Crescent Blue in Clallam Bay

The Crescent Blue Bluegrass Band will bring its unique sound to the Lions Club Clubhouse, 90 Bogachiel St., in Clallam Bay, on Saturday Oct. 17, when it performs a free concert. The concert begins at 7 p.m.

The band has been playing weddings, parties, church functions and concerts in the West End for many years. Crescent Blue also plays the annual Snowgrass Bluegrass benefit in Port Angeles.

Crescent Blue members include Ken Lambert on lead guitar and vocals, Mary Meyer on rhythm guitar and vocals, Barney Munger on five-string banjo and vocals and Dave Lenahan on bass and vocals.

The band became a reality after Meyer and Munger met Lambert at a Relay For Life benefit during the summer of 2006. Six months later they got together to see if their many years of performing bluegrass separately could be parleyed into a sound that people might want to hear.

Crescent Blue added Lenahan in 2009 and the band has performed often throughout the peninsula and occasionally in the Seattle area.

Everyone is invited to the concert. For more information or questions, call 640-0046.
