Guest musicians:
Miguel Garabay- our Wandering Minstrel, sometimes with friends - you'll hear his music at the Market many Saturdays!
Richard Meyers: Appearing August 20, 2022 during Concrete's annual CASCADE DAYS weekend!
Richard Myers sings a cappella. A busker (UK English for “street performer”) since he started at Pike Place in 1997, he got his first break sing the Kool-Aid Song for dimes at a family reunion in 1961
Richard’s repertoire, in over a dozen languages, ranges from opera to Gregorian chant to silly songs for kids to black gospel and blues to… well… songs that don’t fit any category, like his own composition “Do You Remember When We All Had Hair?”, a tribute to his hippie friends from the 60s and 70s whom many of them are now as bald as he is. Richard has written over 60 songs, mostly gospel, and adapted many others. He describes himself as “a Jesus Freak, but not obnoxious about it”
Come hear him and decide for yourself! He will likely smile at you and may tease you, hoping you’ll tease back.
Here’s a link to Richard singing his “Realistic Love Blues”
