Local Artist Brings Funky Folk

Klamath Falls, Ore. –  Join the Ross Ragland Thursday October 12 at 7pm as we kick off our Second Stage Series in the Cultural Center studio one, with local singer-song writer Glenn Justus.

Glenn was born in the West Virginia mountains.  He grew up listening to the old songs that would later become popular in the folk era of the sixties.  “There was always music in our home, and my mother sang on the radio with her brother. She taught me my first chords on the guitar and my grandfather taught me many songs that his parents brought from Ireland.” Drawing from those early inspirations and traditions Glenn has travelled the world and created a genre of music that is all his own.  

Join us for a night of music from Glenn’s playlist. He will perform music on one of his many instruments, including lute, guitar, banjo and accompanied by original lyrics. Tickets on sale at the box office for $15!

The Second Stage Series was created to provide an entertainment venue for local and regional artist to display their amazing talents in an intimate setting. “We’re excited to open the Second Stage Series with Glenn’s excellent original compositions,” said Executive Director Mark McCrary “it’s going to be a relaxing evening”
