At 7 p.m., Saturday, May 30, Bold Riley will host it’s CD release party at She Doesn’t Like Guthries, 115 Middle St., Lewiston. Hailing from the hills of western Maine, Bold Riley comprises four friends with an affinity for folk music, both traditional and contemporary. John Gunn of North Yarmouth lends his rhythmic prowess on the claw hammer banjo, cajon, and bodhran while Michael Hayashida of Auburn wails on fiddle and vocals. Erin Sampson of Casco coordinates beautiful harmonies and Bold Riley’s public presence, and Julia Edwards of Bridgton sings and accompanies with guitar and accordion. Playing a wide range of music from Americana classics and originals to acoustic takes on modern folk music, the group shares a joy for life that they bring to their music and their audiences.There is no cover and for more information call 376-3344.
Artwork by Sheila Patrick is on display at Guthries through the end of the month. While living in Massachusetts, it was an Adult Education course that lured her to oil painting. She visits her native country, Newfoundland, from time to time and many of her paintings depict the beauty of that country. Since oving to Maine, she has shown her art in hospitals, banks, fairs, the Turner Art Club, and at Poland Spring.
