“Music on the Menu” Presents Dave Morehouse

The Portage Lake District Library invites everyone to bring their lunch and enjoy “Music on the Menu,” an outdoor series of events held on the dock outside the library.

Dave Morehouse will carry his eclectic vision of music out to the audience on Friday, June 23, from noon – 1:00 p.m.  He will be opening with a few fiddle and mandolin tunes and continue by performing some solo guitar and vocal work featuring both original tunes and classic covers. Sometime during the performance he will briefly wield an accordion or concertina, but, rest assured, he has filled out and submitted the required permits and alerts with proper authorities. The music will be good, but more than anything, he promises to have fun.

Morehouse has been playing both acoustically and electrically for more than forty years. Beginning as a lad on the acoustic guitar, he expanded his playing to electric guitar and mandolin. Over the years he fell in love with every instrument he ever picked up and was driven to learn, play, and own each of them. Today he owns and plays a variety of stringed, bowed, and reeded instruments, and music remains his passion and mainstay.

Everyone is invited to eat, relax, and enjoy their lunch hour while listening to some great music. Due to the sensitive nature of several of his instruments, this program will be held indoors in the community room.

This event is part of the library’s Summer Reading Program and is free and open to all. For more information, please call the library at 482-4570.
