Red-dy for a great weekend

S

eafood and wine played a big part in my introduction to Oregon. Shortly after my wife and I got married standing on top of a hot tub on a California houseboat, we pointed the truck north and made a run for the Oregon border.

We knew my Scottish skin would shrivel if we tried to put down roots anywhere near Krista’s hometown of Red Blu, so we were in search of somewhere a little cooler - and maybe just a tad wetter.

As we made our way north, we stopped by a winery and left with a six pack - one bottle of each red they had, from merlot to cabernet sauvignon. It was the sort of impulse buy one tends to make after an afternoon of being steadily plied with free booze and one that, on the face of it, did not really mesh with our other plan for the trip - to feast on seafood at every opportunity.

I grew up with the guiding principle that white wine goes with ďŹ sh and red wine goes with

from the editor

meat, period. Or rather, full stop.

This rather conservative and ohso-British dogma is best summed up in the classic train scene in “From Russia with Love,â€? where James Bond is able to uncover a phony secret agent after the imposter makes the terrible faux pas of order-ing Chianti with the ďŹ sh course. A struggle ensues, which ends with the philistine being garroted.

Acceptance of unorthodox wine pairings has come a long way since; and people can now enjoy

2 • oregoncoastTODAY.com • facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday • february 23, 2018

a ďŹ ne pinot noir along alongside their salmon without fear of a deranged super-spy creeping up behind them with a piano wire.

As a result, my enduring memories of that weeklong introduction to Oregon are of great seafood paired with wonderful red wines against a backdrop of glorious sunsets.

I hope this weekend’s Newport Seafood & Wine Festival gives a whole new crop of ďŹ rst-time visitors exactly the same welcome.

Michael Harrington, director and curator of the festival, will be on hand for a Q&A session following the screenings, which start at 7:30 pm at the Hoffman Center for the Arts, 594 Laneda Avenue.

Admission will be $5 at the door.

WHO COULD TURN DOWN THESE QUILTS? Three different nations’ takes on World Heritage Sites will be on display this weekend as the Yachats Commons showcases entries from the 2016 International Challenge Art Quilt Show.

The exhibit features 90 quilters from the USA, Japan and South Korea, each representing one of 30 World Heritage Sites in a piece of fiber art. The result is 90 small quilts, hung vertically on panels for each World Heritage Site, so viewers can compare the work of one nation to the next.

The current group of quilts debuted at the 2016 Handmade Makers Show in Yokohama in November 2016. Since that time, they have toured Japan and South Korea, and are now touring the US. A large number of the US quilts have been made by fiber artists from the Pacific Northwest, including Yachats artist Ruth Bass.

The concept for the International Quilt Challenge was born in 2003, after Izumi

Takamori, owner of The Pin Cushion, a quilting store in Tokyo, met Sue Cutsogeorge of Eugene during a quilters tour of Japan.

Since then, Takamori and her quilting friends have challenged artists in various countries.

Themes of past exhibits have included the alphabet, world currency, world festivals, world painters and world fairy tales.

The quilts will be on display Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 24 and 25, from 10 am to 4 pm at 441 Hwy 101 N. Admission is by suggested donation of $5. High Tea and refreshments will be available for purchase.

An additional exhibit of art quilts created by local artists will be also be on display and for sale.

The show is a benefit for the Yachats Library Move, which will see the city library relocate into the 501 Building, adjacent to the Yachats Commons.

The Trouble with Trilobites

By Steve Sabatka

B

arney was a dachshund-beagle mix — and my collar-jangling, Obi Dog Kenobi, hipping me, in his own shaggy-bearded way, to “what-if?” story ideas as we stomped our sandy side of the Pacific Rim, from Yachats to Long Beach, in all kinds of weather.

Barney was. He is no more. Because just about a year ago, we all but tripped over what would have been the first chapter of the greatest Oregon Coast novel ever — take that Brian Doyle! But then, sadly, tragically, as the old sci-fi movie trailers used to say, something went terribly wrong! It was all Barney’s fault, and I was so enraged that I felt compelled to resolve the situation. With extreme prejudice.

It was another cool, misty morning at the stony south jetty of the Columbia River, not far from the rusted ribs of the Peter Iredale. Barney and I prowled the sharp, black boulders, he sniffing and scratching and marking his turf, me swinging a silvery driftwood stick that had the approximate length and curve of a katana sword, and both of us leaving our respective footprints in the coarse sand.

There were no other living beings in sight, save, briefly, for a line of cormorants, five of those black, long-necked birds, dotting the sky in an intermittent pattern that looked for all the world like musical notes on a page — five notes, of some pentatonic, Kabuki melody.

As I listened to that exotic track and waited for the story juices to bubble up from the haunted currents of the Pacific

Graveyard, hazy sunlight glistened on a wet exoskeleton, caught my eye, and stopped me dead in my size-12 tracks.

And then there it was, something so shocking, so astoundingly out of time, as to totally rock the world of science.

You might not know what a trilobite is — or was — especially if you aren’t a lifelong dinosaur nut like me, who learned to read by sounding out words like “bron-to-saur-us,” and who started an epic slap fight between my grandmother and a librarian who thought that, since I had checked out all of her dinosaur books, maybe I should expand my bibliorizons so that nobody would think I was some kind of Mesozoic oddball, or something.

Trilobites were three-lobed arachnomorph arthropods that looked a lot like horseshoe crabs. They have never, ever been seen by human eyes, at least in non-fossilized form, because they’ve been extinct for 250 million years. Until I almost stepped on one, that is.

“No way.” For one very strange moment, I wondered if maybe the breakfast burrito I had shared with Barney that morning had been laced with some kind of Oaxacan hallucinogenic spice — or if my dog and I had just stepped through an invisible, Ray Bradburian portal into the Paleozoic Era. But when I reached down, picked up the ravioli-sized trilobite, held it in my hand, and then watched as it curled in my palm like a frightened pill bug, I knew it was the real deal, that I was about to be the richest high school teacher in the state, write

about the experience, make the bestseller list, and then quit. Take that Teacher Standards and Practices Commission!

I looked around for another primordial Lazarus, thinking, hoping against hope, that maybe a sub-ocean vein of hibernating creatures had cracked open, and that I had to put the grab on as many trilobites as I could before hightailing it to either the Maritime Museum in Astoria, or the Hatfield Center in Newport, to start the bidding war. But apparently, the archaic mystery, slowly opening in my palm, now — trusting me — was the only one of its kind.

I couldn’t keep this discovery to myself.

“Look what I found, boy!”

As Barney sniffed at the trilobite, the thought, the mental image, of me, a semievolved hominid, displaying a prehistoric bottom feeder to a domesticated canine that had been named after a cartoon caveman, blew my mind. And I guess I was still reeling to such an extent that my reflexes weren’t quick enough to snap my hand away before Barney snatched that poor trilobite up, and wolfed it down without so much as a please and thank you.

The last thing I remember about the trilobite before my dog ate it: Einstein-Confucian eyes, blinking with Yoda wisdom, as if to say, “Hello! Much to tell you I have!”

I watched Barney for the next 24 hours, not out of concern for his health, but to save his doody, and any trace evidence

of the antediluvian creature that had survived the dog digestion process — fragments of legs, feelers, etc. — in a Ziploc bag.

I kept that bag. It’s still in my freezer.

Barney, on the other hand…

When my lemon-head nephews came out from the Valley to visit me, I told them that Barney wasn’t really a coast kinda dog, that I had given him to a friend, and that Barney was on a farm, somewhere on the other side of the Summit, happily running through some golden meadow with all those other dogs and cats that got sick or hit by cars or tore up expensive couches. I think they bought it.

Postscript: Last week, I went to Prehistoric, a combination fossil gallery and dinosaur emporium in Lincoln City, and bought a fossilized trilobite. It was smaller than the real one I had found — and dead, of course. I wanted to tell my trilobite story to the guy behind the counter, or ask if he wanted to quote me a price for a plastic bag of modern day trilobite remains. But he seemed to be a practical sort, and I knew he would think I had become that Mesozoic oddball. On the way home, I stopped at a sushi restaurant, ordered tempura shrimp — and couldn’t help but wonder, what would batter-fried trilobite taste like?

Need a hand?

The Lincoln County Volunteer Fair will return to Newport Recreation Center on Saturday, March 10, giving people the chance to visit with local non-profits and learn about their organizations.

Volunteer opportunities on offer span a range of work and issue areas, such as environmental conservation, homelessness, animal rights, elderly and disabilities, poverty, youth education and many more.

“Volunteers are the glue that hold many non-profits together”

said organizer Peggy O’Callaghan.

“Volunteering has many benefits. It can increase job skills, provide networking opportunities, create new friendships and can provide a sense of purpose and accomplishment. Volunteering can transform your own life, as well as others, in so many positive ways.”

The event will run from 10 am to 2 pm at Newport Recreation Center, 225 SE Avery Street.

For more information, call Peggy O’Callaghan at 541-574-5459 or Dee Kecy at 541-265-9617.

Dive in and volunteer

This service is a snip The Tillamook County Master Gardeners are now accepting applications for the group’s annual Community Pruning Day, which will see volunteers pick up their clippers on March 17 to help the less able tackle their unruly gardens.

The free service allows Master Gardeners to use some of the skills they have learned through the Oregon State University Master Gardener’s program to benefit the Tillamook community.

The pruning will be done by

qualified Master Gardeners, assisted by some of this year’s apprentice Master Gardeners.

Pruning projects throughout Tillamook County will be considered, but limited to bushes, shrubs and small trees. Larger trees that would require the use of a ladder or power tools to prune will not be eligible for the program.

Applications for the pruning assistance program are available at the OSU Extension Office, 4506 3rd Street, Tillamook or online at http://extension.oregonstate.

edu/tillamook/mg/tcmga. The applications must be turned in to the extension office by March 1. Applications will be reviewed by a Master Gardener evaluation team and will include a driveby to decide what work is actually needed and whether the project qualifies. Those submitting applications will be notified if their project is accepted and the approximate time of day to expect the pruning team.

For more information, call 503-842-3433.

Normally, when SCUBA divers exchange tips on the best diving spots, they talk in terms of landmarks or GPS co-ordinates. Rarely do you get a street address.

But 2820 SE Ferry Slip Road, Newport, has developed quite a reputation for calm, crystal clear water and an abundance of animals.

These fantastic conditions are found every day inside the Oregon Coast Aquarium, where more than 150 divers come to volunteer once every three weeks.

Volunteers have been an integral part of the aquarium’s mission since it opened 25 years ago. Volunteer roles include public interpretation of exhibits, preparing animal diets, diving Passages of the Deep for animal observation and habitat maintenance, and contributing to education in the classroom.

Youth volunteers take a lead in conservation education in the summer months while

exploring marine careers.

Anyone interested in spending an exciting summer on the aquarium’s volunteer team can learn more at one of three upcoming outreach events.

The aquarium will host a Volunteer Dive Recruiting Day on Saturday, March 3, followed by an Interpreter, Concierge and Youth Volunteer Recruitment Day on Saturday, April 14.

And on Saturday, March 10, the aquarium will be among the local non-profits with booths at the Lincoln County Volunteer Fair, running from 10 am to 2 pm, at Newport Recreation Center, 225 Avery Street.

A volunteer’s schedule and training is dependent upon their position and duties. Interpretive volunteers collectively connect with more than 400,000 visitors each year and ensure that guests leave the aquarium with a

better understanding of and appreciation for the coast.

Speaking on behalf of animals and their environments is no simple task, which is why the aquarium treats these volunteer recruits to a threeday crash course on the coastal and marine fauna of Oregon, beginning on May 5.

Additional perks for volunteers include complimentary aquarium membership and free passes, invitations to participate in exclusive lectures and continuing education programs, discounts at the Wildlife Trading Company gift shops and more For more information, go to aquarium.org or contact the aquarium’s Volunteer Services department at volunteer@ aquarium.org.

Hospice volunteers needed Applications are now being accepted for hospice volunteers in Lincoln City and Newport, with free training on offer to those interested in working to support patients and their families.

“I feel we have a responsibility to take care of our neighbors, especially since Lincoln County is a mostly rural county,” said Volunteer Co-ordinator Sherrie Flinn.

“When someone is sick, family and friends want to take care of their loved one, but often they need a break to take care of themselves. Hospice volunteers are trained to step in.”

Volunteers receive more than 23 hours of annual training and they are matched to a patient and situation that make both feel comfortable.

There is a particular need for military veterans and people from smaller outlying communities including Beaver, Rose Lodge, Siletz, Logsden,

Blodgett and Yachats. Most volunteers work an hour a week per patient, and up to four hours a week if they want to be more involved.

Flinn said the effect volunteers have when someone is going through a difficult time is unmistakable.

“It’s just a beautiful thing,” she said. “I believe that we all want to find purpose in our lives and sometimes that

overflows into the lives of others. That is why we keep doing what we do.”

Anyone interested in volunteering is invited to attend free training courses that begin on March 6 in Lincoln City and March 12 in Newport.

For more information and to start the application process, call Flinn at 541-996-7328 or 541-574-1811.

Chaplain training on offer An overview of what it takes to be a hospital chaplain will be offered on Monday, Feb. 26, in Newport, as Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital hosts a Q&A on its new accredited training program.

Led by Chaplain Doug Hollums, the session will run from 3 to 4 pm, with participants meeting in the chapel, just inside the

hospital’s Abbey Street entrance.

The Clinical Pastoral Education program begins Thursday, April 12, at Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital in Newport and Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital in Lincoln City. This first session will last for 24 weeks.

The program is an interfaith program and participants

do not need to be ordained.

Participants must have a basic college education, must be an active participant in their respective faith group and have a letter of reference from that group.

The program will offer professional and theological training through supervised clinical ministry. Participants will gain the skills, increased confidence and competence to

learn a little

support people dealing with difficult life issues. While students in this program will train in a clinical setting, the education and training will prepare them to serve as a chaplain in all fields, not just the medical industry.

For more information on program details and costs, contact Hollums at 541-5744751, or email dhollums@ samhealth.org.

A new slate of weight-loss classes in Lincoln City aims to help participants discover what’s holding them back from finally dropping the extra weight.

Holistic mind-body-energy coach and author Bodhi M. Jordan sets out to help her clients decode what their excess weight is trying to tell them.

Jordan’s unique teaching style encourages people to listen to and reinterpret the messages they get from their body, mind and food choices, so they can achieve a healthier, more slender outcome.

“The feedback we honor can not only improve our quality of life, but can even save our life,” she said.

Through her classes and coaching, Jordan facilitates a step-by-step process that gives clients a blueprint for becoming their preferred weight.

“Fighting fat from a fat-mindset is old school and is fraught with frustrations,” she said, “However, adopting a naturally slender-mindset allows body weight to normalize, and this can be learned and adopted by someone who is open and willing to

learn the steps.”

Jordan will offer a pair of free classes at Driftwood Public library, “Natural Weight Loss Mindsets” at 6 pm on Wednesday, Feb. 28; and “How to Turn off a Food Craving” at 6 pm on Monday, March 12.

An experiential class, “Mindsets for Lasting Weight Loss,” will be on offer on Tuesday, Feb. 27, and March 13, running from 6 to 7:45 pm at Jordan’s home. Tuition is $20 per class.

And “Lighten Up: Inside & Out,” a three-part workshop running from 10 am to 6 pm each Saturday, March 17 through 31, aims to empower participants to finally lose their surplus weight. The workshop will cover decoding chronic weight, turning off cravings, learning how to be naturally thinner without dieting or excessive exercise, whole food nutrition, fermented foods and gut healing for weight loss, energy and well-being. The cost is $597 per person or $1,149 per couple.

To book a spot in any of the classes, email Jordan at ThankYou540@gmail. com or call 503-862-7999.

Oregon Coast TODAY

T

he wizened Dungeon Master beckons you in closer, the flickering camp fire dancing in his timeless eyes. In a raspy voice, he delivers the news that everyone in the party has been waiting for - a quest is at hand.

“Shall we be hunting orcs?” asked the elf archer. “Be we in search of gold?” growled the stout dwarf warrior.

“Nothing so ordinary,” whispered the Dungeon Master. “This quest shall take you in search of the twin treasures of the Oregon Coast - seafood and wine.”

••• As your party makes its way across the gleaming Yaquina Bay Bridge, your destination comes into sight below. The vast tent sprawls across South Beach like a slumbering dragon, the hoots and hollers of its lively inhabitants amplified as they drift across the bay.

Once across the bridge, your valiant band faces its first challenge as you approach the Rogue Brewery. The dwarf, thirsty from the long march, veers off course, making a beeline for the award-winning ales that lie within.

It takes everyone working together (and a few lucky rolls of the 20-sided-dice) but after much grappling and grunting, the party arrives at the entrance to The Great Tent.

“Tickets, please,” chimes the friendly chamber of commerce volunteer.

Unfortunately, the Dungeon Master neglected to mention that, due to its huge popularity, admission to the festival’s Saturday event is by advance e-ticket only. And while a few members of the party can hold their own with an abacus, none have yet mastered an iPhone.

Time for the wizard to step up. A few murmured incantations later and, voilá, a set of bogus tickets spring magically into existence.

Thursday, Feb. 22: 5-9 pm, $16 Friday, Feb. 23: Noon-9 pm, $17 Saturday, Feb. 24: 10 am-6 pm, $22 e-ticket only Sunday, Feb. 25: 10 am-4 pm, $8 21 and over only. ID required.

For tickets, go to SeafoodandWine.com

But even with the conjured counterfeits in hand, your party’s troubles are not over. The watchful security staff have serious doubts that your halfling thief is over 21. Eventually, he manages to persuade them by telling a series of increasingly rude jokes that prove he’s been around the block more than once.

Leaving the blushing guards behind, your party makes its way into the cavernous tent, with eyes popping and jaws dropping at the

sight of such bounty of all kinds. Normally, you would explore systematically, watching each other’s backs and keeping an eye out for hidden danger on the flanks. Not today.

All discipline goes out the window as each member rushes off in search of their own personal treasure.

The elf quickly checks out each wine vendor, making a list of everyone that serves something light and fizzy. Meanwhile, the

10 • oregoncoastTODAY.com • facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday • february 23, 2018

halfling makes his way straight to the food court, stacking up three crab melts, two portions of fish and chips and a large pork sausage while he ponders what to order for his main course.

The cleric scours the craft vendors, stocking up on silver necklaces to ward off werewolves; jerky and fudge to ward off hunger; and a new cloak made from recycled t-shirts to ward off the nagging feeling that the party only keeps him around for his healing powers.

By the end of the night, your berserker has found his way on to the dance floor where some of Newport’s finest grooves have whipped him into a whirling dervish.

The wizard, who had been doing his best to follow the carnage and repair the damage with strategically placed spells, has finally given up and is sitting and enjoying the show with a cheeky glass of Syrah from the Flying Dutchman Winery.

Meanwhile, the dwarf has locked arms with a clutch of local fishermen, with the whole group bellowing out something halfway between a sea shanty and an ancient dwarven mining chant.

All in all, a successful quest. Let’s ask the Dungeon Master if we can do it again tomorrow.

The Newport Seafood & Wine Festival runs from Thursday, Feb. 22, through Sunday, Feb. 25, next to the Rogue Brewery at South Beach.

Arts guild welcomes a smooth talker Silkscreen artist Mike Guerriero will be the guest speaker at the Thursday, March 1, lunch meeting of the Coastal Arts Guild in Newport.

Born in a farm town in California’s San Joaquin valley, Guerriero was encouraged by his family and teachers to pursue his interest in graphic art. An enthusiastic high school art teacher gave Guerriero a screen printing introduction

that has captivated him to this day. He earned a BA from Cal State Stanislaus and was awarded a fellowship in sculpture from Western Michigan University, then moved on to Kalamazoo to earn his MFA. He moved to Yachats in 2013 and is furthering his portfolio with new images of the Oregon Coast.

Guerriero’s process constructs an image by pressing ink through a screen

Art in the spotlight The new Pedestal Spotlight Show at Newport’s Yaquina Art Association Gallery features the paint and clay art of Ginger Raia.

A native Oregonian, Raia lived in Hawaii and traveled the world before retiring on the Oregon Coast. She continues to learn and experience new things all the time, including through classes at the Sitka Center for Art and Ecology.

Art became important to Raia at a very young age when

she did the cartoons for a small local newspaper as her first paid job. She went on to do cartoons for a bigger paper then began to explore other art mediums. Painting and sculpting are her main passions now.

“I have been knee-deep in clay for 30 years,” she said.

The Pedestal Spotlight Show will run through Friday, March 2, available to view from 11 am to 4 pm at the Yaquina Art Association Gallery, 789 NW Beach Drive.

onto a substrate, usually paper or fabric. For many of his works, he will use as many as 15 stencils, or frames, to layer color after color on top of one an-other. Each of his works embodies a calculated process from start to finish.

The lunch meeting will begin at 11 am at the Newport Visual Arts Center, 777 NW Beach Drive.

For more information or an invitation to attend call Mary Holt at 541-765-4599.

Join the conversation. facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday

Urgent Care For you and your loved ones in Lincoln City, Tillamook and Manzanita. Open Sundays.

Ed Tanabe, Lisa Morrigan and Penelope Cole

The brand made famous for its high-end auction house in New York has been making its mark in luxury home sales across the country. In late 2015, Cascade Sotheby’s International Realty expanded its network to the Oregon Coast and lucky us! The local team of Lisa Morrigan, Penelope Cole and Ed Tanabe serves the central coast from Pacific City to Yachats and offers you a team of professionals to serve your real estate needs.

Lisa Morrigan grew up in a real estate family and has more than 16 years of experience in selling real estate on the Oregon Coast.

Lisa’s passion for real estate drives her success. She has the unique ability to connect with the clients and help them work through the emotions of buying or selling coastal properties.

Penelope Cole, owner of Café C’est La Vie in the vacation destination neighborhood of Bella Beach, has traveled extensively both globally and locally. Penelope’s “around the world” experience offers a broad sense of “place” to buyers and sellers alike.

Ed Tanabe has an operational and financial background with the Boeing Company and provides the analytical balance for our team.

Ed’s down-to-earth style helps our clients work through the

variables in buying or selling real estate and reach a decision that is right for them.

The concept of selling homes as dreams is a quote taken from Lisa, the “heart” of the team.

“I want to offer a chance for people to come to the coast and find their dream” she said.

The word luxury isn’t about price, it’s about lifestyle, quality, and dreams. Whether your dreams bring you to the coast or set you on the path to new adventures, our team is here to help you achieve your dreams. Come see us at our office located at the entrance to Bella Beach, located between Gleneden Beach and Depoe Bay.

Wells playing at the Lincoln City Farmers Market

A devoted friend of Lincoln City’s Driftwood Public Library will be performing a free farewell concert on Wednesday, Feb. 28, as he prepares to move on to the next stage of his life.

Library users might be familiar with Fred Wells’ music from his performances at the past two Winter Solstice celebrations, where he has impressed audiences with a mixture of blues, Celtic and acoustic crossroads music.

Locals might also recognize Wells from local bands One Way Out and The Water Brothers. He has also hosted his own open mic sessions at the Nauti Mermaid, as well as other locations throughout

16 • oregoncoastTODAY.com • facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday • february 23, 2018

Lincoln County. He has been a performer for close to 45 years, half of that touring and recording professionally.

Wells grew up in Richmond, Virginia, and finished high school in the San Francisco Bay Area.

He then lived in Hawaii, where he played in various bands before returning to California, where he gigged extensively as he gained experience as a musician. He has also worked in landscaping and construction, recycling and as an account executive in telecommunications in Silicon Valley in the ‘80s. In addition to being a performer, he is also a music teacher.

Wells first met his wife Sharon in 2008, and moved to Lincoln City in 2010 to marry her and settle here. After seven years in Oregon, the two are relocating to Arizona this Spring, partly seeking a change of climate due to health reasons. The two plan to return occasionally to see grandchildren in the area.

The farewell concert will start at 6 pm at Driftwood Public Library, located on the second floor of the Lincoln Square Civic Complex at 801 SW Hwy. 101 For more information, contact Ken Hobson at 541996-1242 or e-mail khobson@ lincolncity.org.

GREAT SCOTS! High-energy music straight from the Highland will be on offer this Friday, Feb. 23, as “Gaelic Supergroup” Dàimh makes its rocking bagpipe-and-fiddle return to the Lincoln City Cultural Center.

Dàimh, which, in keeping with Gaelic’s devilish trickiness, is pronounced “dive,” translates roughly as “kinship.” And that kinship will be on display when the awardwinning group steps on stage, armed with guitar, pipes, whistle and mandola.

The instrumental force of the band resonates from Angus MacKenzie on bagpipes and Gabe McVarish on fiddle, accompanied by Ross Martin on guitar and Murdo “Yogi” Cameron on mandola and accordion.

Sweet vocals are delivered by rising Gaelic star Ellen Macdonald. Together, they produce authentic Gaelic music with a

in concert modern edge and wide range of expression.

Recent accolades include last year’s award for the “Best Folk Band in Europe” at the prestigious Folkherbst competition in Germany and, most recently, winner of “Folk Band of the Year” at the Scottish Traditional Music Awards.

One of only three Oregon gigs on this tour, Friday’s show is Dàimh’s first appearance in Lincoln City since their soldout concert in February 2017.

Angus MacKenzie, a Gaelic-speaking piper from Canada’s East Coast has spent the past 19 years living on the Isle of Skye and plays Highland pipes, Border pipes and whistles for the band. His piping style draws on his strong South Uist roots along with the danceinfluenced rhythms of Cape Breton music.

In 2012, he and his brother Kenneth were nominated for Roots Traditional Recording of the Year at the East Coast Music Awards for their album “Pìob is Fidheall.”

Fiddler Gabe McVarish hails from Northern California, where his

McVarish travelled to his ancestral homeland of the Scottish Highlands at the age of 17, where he spent a year studying music under the tutelage of fiddler and tradition bearer Angus Grant Sr. After completing a degree in Scottish music he released solo album “Eclection,” a culmination of fiddle styles and repertoire from both sides of the Atlantic.

Playing mandola, mandolin and accordion is Murdo Cameron, who comes from a long line of traditional Gaelic singers and grew up in Glenelg, a stone’s throw from the Isle of Skye. Cameron started out as an accordion player and piper, and in the past few years has become a busy guitar accompanist and stringed things enthusiast.

Vocalist Ellen MacDonald is fast finding a flock of fans and followers with her natural,

smoky voice and individual interpretation.

Born and raised in Inverness with strong maternal ties to the language and songs of North Uist and Scalpay, MacDonald studied at Scotland’s only dedicated Gaelic language college, Sabhal Mòr Ostaig on the Isle of Skye. Her acting skills have seen her nominated for Best Performance at the FilmG awards for her role in a Gaelic short film “Briste” and landing a key role in the BBC’s new Gaelic drama “Bannan.”

Guitarist Ross Martin has toured Europe and the US with Irish singer Karan Casey.

His unique style of guitar accompaniment has him in demand for numerous projects including Dual, a collaborative exploration of traditional Gaelic music of Scotland and Ireland by Danù singer Muireann Nic Amhlaoimh and “Brave” singing sensation, Julie Fowlis.

Friday’s concert will begin at 7 pm at 540 NE Hwy. 101. Tickets, $25 in advance, $27 at the door and $10 for kids aged 18 and under, are available at the box office or online at lincolncityculturalcenter.org.

Soft drinks, sweet treats and snacks, along with Northwest beer and wine, will be on sale before the show and during intermission.
