Phoenix duo performs at the Pioneer Church

The award-winning singer-songwriter duo Phoenix will appear at the historic Pioneer Church in Cathlamet on Saturday, November 2nd, beginning at 2 p.m. This concert will be a fund raiser for the upkeep of this marvelous venue. This beautiful center is a former church that was built in 1895. It is the most prominent landmark in Cathlamet. Facilities like this were designed for acoustic instruments and voices. It's going to be a fun afternoon!

The duo has recently returned from Nashville, Tennessee, where they have been nominated as Duo of the Year (Folk/Americana) in the Josie Music Awards. Tim Crosby has also been nominated as Multi-instrumentalist of the Year.
