Today and tonight signify Friday, July 3.
SEQUIM — Folk and gospel harmonies will fill up the Riverhouse, a turn-of-the-century place near the Dungeness River, as two bands arrive tonight.
Admission is free to the 7:30 p.m. concert featuring Hilary and Kate, a folk duo from California, and the Great Abide, David Rivers’ new rootsy-folk band.
This get-together is also a potluck, so guests are welcome to bring food and beverages to share at the Riverhouse, 385 W. Silberhorn Road. Blankets and lawn chairs will come in handy, too.
Hilary Watson and Kate Feldtkeller are known for their traditional gospel songs — played with their own spin. The women, who accompany themselves on violin and guitar, played in Port Angeles and Sequim a couple of times last year.
As for the Great Abide, Rivers said his outfit offers visceral, spiritual folk, joyful originals, four-part harmonies, mandolin and slide guitar.
“They’re sure to get you clapping,” said the singer-guitarist, formerly of Abby Mae & the Homeschool Boys.
