Band to bring out sounds of 1960s in concert in Port Townsend on Thursday

PORT TOWNSEND — The Shady Grove band will bring the sounds of the 1960s folk era, with songs by the Kingston Trio, the Brothers Four and Bob Dylan, to a Candlelight Concert at Trinity United Methodist Church on Thursday night.

Admission is a suggested $10 donation for adults, though children are invited to come free to the 7 p.m. performance at Trinity, uptown at 609 Taylor St.

Proceeds from this concert series benefit Port Townsend charities and Trinity’s music and historic Victorian restoration program.

Shady Grove includes Larry Costello, Chet Rideout, Don Fristoe and Lee Goldhammer, who blend vocal harmonies with six- and 12-string guitars, banjos, mandolin and string bass; on music by the likes of Dylan, Crosby, Stills and Nash and the Everly Brothers.

The foursome has a CD, “One More Song,” to be on sale at Thursday’s show.

Trinity’s doors will open at 6:30 p.m., and refreshments will be served following the performance.

For more details about the Candlelight Concert series, phone Dan Purnell at 360-774-1644.

A 65-foot-long historic tug rests in the Port of Port Townsend Boat Haven Marina’s 300-ton marine lift as workers use pressure washers to blast years of barnacles and other marine life off the hull. The tug was built for the U.S. Army at Peterson SB in Tacoma in 1944. Originally designated TP-133, it is currently named Island Champion after going through several owners since the army sold it in 1947. It is now owned by Debbie Wright of Everett, who uses it as a liveaboard. The all-wood tug is the last of its kind and could possibly be entered in the 2025 Wooden Boat Festival.(Steve Mullensky/for Peninsula Daily News)
