Tonight we had a great concert right here in Seldovia with the Grammy Award winning quartet – Riders in the Sky! Besides the colorful and very flashy outfits and witty dialogue, these gentlemen were a solid hit as they were smooth, professional and tons of fun! The room was crowded with folks from infants to seniors – and everyone had a fantastic time! This was not their first trip to Seldovia, the group came here 27 years ago – and they remembered us – even after all their fame and fortune with Grammys and Disney movies!

It was a true pleasure to spend the evening in the presence of such great musicians and accomplished performers – recognized in the industry! This was a real treat for Seldovia! Thanks for coming guys! I just grabbed these impromptu “hellos” from the group at the end of the concert – they were such great sports! Enjoy a fun and informal “howdy”!
Thanks to the Seldovia Arts Council for bringing these boys to town!
