Join us every Thursday Evening for AMP Presents: All Ages Open Mic! 7-10 PM @ The Globe!
Amplifying the music of Anacortes
We are excited to present the AMP Youth Choir! Our first 10 week session begins Monday October 5th from 6:00-7:30pm at The Globe (formerly Buxton’s) and is open to youth ages 8-13. Students will gain experience in reading music, ear training, and group singing. They will explore different styles of music and participate in a final concert for family, friends & the community on Monday December 7th. Director Sophia Christensen Price has directed & accompanied a variety of choirs, vocal directed multiple musical theatre productions, and taught private voice and piano throughout the Valley for the last 25 years. She looks forward to working with your student!

Two grand pianos. Candlelight. The music of Elliott Smith.
Kathy Moore, Tim Mechling, Ben Starner, and a special guest come together for an intimate night of Elliott Smith’s music. Stripped down, reimagined, and played the way it deserves to be heard: close up and loud enough to feel.
Settle in with a drink, good food, and some of Smith’s most haunting and beautiful songs.
General Admission OR Tickets INCLUDING food/drink available
Dad’s Diner will be serving up a delicious menu of small bites including pickle-brined chicken wings, deviled eggs, bacon-wrapped jalapeños, and jamón burré, along with a specialty cocktail or mocktail created just for the evening.
Limited seating. Come listen.
