The Ellensburg Community Radio
Summer Concert
Friday, July 14, 2023 at The Brickhouse Nursery
Doors at 5:00pm // Music from 6:00 - 8:00pm
Join us on Friday, July 14th in the Manastash Canyon for an evening of music and community as we raise funds for Ellensburg Community Radio.
Two of Ellensburg's most successful hometown musicians, Star Anna and Mark Pickerel, along with Stephanie Anne Johnson will perform on the spectacular grounds of the newly opened Brick House Gardens and Nursery. Doors open at 5:00pm with music from 6:00pm - 8:00pm. Food and drink will be available for purchase. This is a 21+ ages event and is rain or shine!
Star Anna is a singer/songwriter from the Pacific Northwest whose music blends the rootsy sound of country with the edgy emotional honesty of rock & roll. She is currently in the studio recording a new album - this concert supports her in that effort.
Mark Pickerel is an artist unafraid to follow an unusual career path -- after spending six years as the original drummer for the alternative rock band, Screaming Trees, one of the more important rock bands to emerge from the Pacific Northwest, he has gone on to a respected career as a singer and songwriter after a spell as an in demand sideman and the owner of a record store.
"A singer’s talent is complete when they can bring a crowded dive bar to a collective hush and also get one of the biggest audiences on the planet to a collective standing ovation. Stephanie Anne Johnson is that special singer. Stephanie can don a cowboy hat and sing over a slide as old timers weep. And she has wowed judges on the immensely popular NBC TV series, The Voice." She has opened for acts that include political figure Bernie Sanders, and artists such as Mavis Staples, Chaka Khan, Ani D
