Square Dancing at the Jamboree

Bellingham's annual music festival, the Subdued Stringband Jamboree, is getting bigger and busier every year. Thank goodness some things never change, like the Saturday night square dance.

Rock Camp

My niece participated in a week long day camp for girls to form a rock band, learn instruments, and write a song or two.  The week ended with a showcase of the girls' work.  A great little concert at a local music bar. 





They rocked!!

Spring Music

This lively trio captivated the crowd at Saturday's Farmers Market opening.

Bellingham Kids Fest 2011

Two girls share a giggle at the antics of Recess Monkey, a three-schoolteacher-band from Seattle, at Bellingham's Kids Fest on Saturday. My girls are big fans of Recess Monkey, so they were very excited to be there for their first Bellingham concert! Below is a video of the girls' favorite song. Watch if you dare, but be warned-- it will be stuck in your head the rest of the day.

Pluckin' in the Park

These men took advantage of the (finally!) lovely weather and brought their jam session outside.

SambAmore at Boundary Bay

Ahhh, summer. Once again time for Yogoman's Wild Rumpus in the Boundary Bay beer garden. Last night Yogoman Burning Band brought their friends sambAmore along for a performance. The Bellinghamsters approved! There was wild energy and a lot of smiles going around. Thanks for an awesome show, guys!
