Millbend Coffeehouse Presents
Traveler
Sep 12th @ 7:00pm
Traveler consists of Carol Hendrix Burrus, Charlie Burrus, and Andy Black. Carol is foremost a songwriter. Her songs, sometimes political or spiritual and sometimes simply about love, seem to speak to the thoughtful crowd that gathers at Traveler performances. Charlie brings his background in rock, rhythm & blues and bluegrass to the musical mix. In addition to playing acoustic and electric guitar, he arranges many of the songs, contributing piano, organ, accordion, melodica, percussion, ukulele, and mandolin. Andy brings his solid, creative bass playing and clear tenor voice to complete the Traveler sound. Local musician Karl Singleton will open this month’s concert.

First Amendment Choir Practice
The First Amendment Choir is a public-facing group dedicated to expressing conscience, witness, and peaceful protest through song. Participants are welcome to bring their voices and/or any instruments they feel moved to share. Music has long been a powerful tool for moral courage, solidarity, and collective expression, and this group is rooted in nonviolence, care for one another, and the protection of fundamental freedoms.
In addition to musical participants, we are actively seeking non-musical participants, especially for protest. These roles may include presence, sign-holding, logistical support, or simply standing in visible solidarity. No musical experience is required—only a willingness to show up peacefully and together.
Meeting: Tuesdays at 6pm in the Garden Room.
