Thunder Ridge Bluegrass Band to perform at Cashmere Community Church

CASHMERE - Cashmere Community Concerts will host a high-energy traditional bluegrass performance by Portland-based band Thunder Ridge on Saturday, April 27, at 7:00 pm. The concert will be held at the Cashmere Community Church at 213 S Division St, Cashmere.

Thunder Ridge was formed in 2022 when they were asked to fill in for a band that canceled their performance with only 4 hours notice. Despite having never played together before, the group discovered their unique blend of voices, drive, and musical tastes. They specialize in hard-driving sound with tight two and three-part harmonies, and their repertoire includes both beloved bluegrass standards and original compositions.

The band features Drew Trucker on mandolin and vocals, Chuck Holloway on 5-string banjo and vocals, Patrick Connell on guitar and vocals, Gary Schuh on fiddle, and a yet-to-be-determined bassist.

Cashmere Community Concerts, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing affordable, high-quality live entertainment to the Wenatchee Valley, is organizing the event. A cover charge of $5.00 per person at the door will help cover expenses, and refreshments will be provided. The musicians will be paid through a one-time Hat Pass, with a suggested donation of $8 to $15 per person.

The concert will take place in an alcohol-free environment with concert seating. Doors open at 6:30 pm. For more information, call Marie at (509) 421-0494 or visit the Cashmere Community Concerts series website at www.cashmereconcerts.com.
