DRY BRANCH FIRE SQUAD A CONCERT IN CELEBRATION OF THE LIFE OF WARREN HELLMAN AND A BENEFIT FOR THE SAN FRANCISCO FREE CLINIC
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 18TH, 2012, 8 PM $25 ADMISSION SAUSALITO PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, 112 BULKLEY AVENUE, SAUSALITO, CA On Saturday, February 18th, at 8 p.m., the Dry Branch Fire Squad will be playing a special concert of old-time and bluegrass music at the Sausalito Presbyterian Church at 8 p.m. Formed in 1976 and led by the highly entertaining Ron Thomason, Dry Branch is known for its exceptional live performances, which include hot picking combined with self-deprecating humor and intelligence.
This concert will also be a celebration of the life of the late San Francisco investor, philanthropist and banjo player Warren Hellman, who also finances the highly successful and popular Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festivals in SF’s Golden Gate Park every October. Hellman passed away on December 18th, 2011. A portion of the proceeds from the concert will benefit the San Francisco Free Clinic, which was founded by Hellman’s daughter and son-in-law.
Opening the show with a short set of music will be the Marin duo Keystone Crossing (Larry Carlin and Claudia Hampe).
For more information about the show and tickets, call Don Koc at (415) 383-8716 or email Don at d.koc@comcast.net.
Parking For the location of the Sausalito Presbyterian Church, click here. Parking is a bit challenging in that area. You can drop off passengers in front of the church, but the best thing to do is to then park in downtown Sausalito or the ferry parking lot and walk up the steps beside the Wells Fargo Bank.
