Covering a wide variety of music, there is something for everyone!

you on a musical journey.
Wednesday, August 11 • Light of 2 Moons
A unique mix of music from Island Sounds to Classic Rock, Blues, Country and maybe even an old Folk Tune here and
there. Not a dance band, Light of 2 Moons is well-known for a fabulous blend of vocal harmonies providing a night
of listening, singing along, and remembering some great old tunes.
