FORKS — Therapy Session, a roots-rock-and-blues band from the West End, will give a free concert at the Peninsula College Forks Extension site at 7 p.m. tonight, and all ages are welcome.

The quartet’s repertoire roams a lot, from country and gospel and from Gershwin’s “Summertime” to Billy Joe Shaver’s “Georgia on a Fast Train.”

Another number Therapy Session may well offer is “164.14,” a song about the rainfall one winter in Forks.

The music will flow until about 9 p.m. at the Extension site, 71 S. Forks Ave.

Healing balm

Therapy Session formed about six years ago after singer-guitarist Sally Milici and guitarist Roger Lien, both mourning the death of their spouses, began playing music together — and found it to be a healing salve.

Harmonica player Peter Larsen and bass player David Lenahan later joined the band.
