SUMMARY:After-hours: Sarah McQuaid in Concert
DESCRIPTION:“One of the most instantly recognizable voices in current music.” —Trust The Doc \nSarah McQuaid’s lush\, chocolatey voice combines with her engaging personality\, “subtle mastery onstage” (Huffington Post) and “brilliant musicianship” (fRoots) on acoustic and electric guitars\, piano and (occasionally) drum to create a truly immersive experience. \nBorn in Spain\, raised in Chicago\, holding dual Irish and American citizenship\, and now settled in rural England\, she brings the eclecticism of her background to her “captivating\, unorthodox songwriting” (PopMatters) and choice of material\, spanning genres and defying categorization. \nAll this is abundantly demonstrated by her new live album and video series The St. Buryan Sessions — but needs to be savored in person to be fully appreciated. \nThis concert is free and open to all. Doors will open at 6:00 p.m. and music will begin at 6:30 p.m. No registration is required. \nFor additional information\, please contact Samantha at samanthah@dkpl.org or at (815) 756-9568 ext. 1701.

SUMMARY:Tusk at the Egyptian Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Back by popular demand! Tusk is the number one Tribute to Fleetwood Mac in the world\, bar none. No fancy tricks\, no gimmicks\, just five musicians recreating the music of Fleetwood Mac to perfection with note for note renditions that no other Fleetwood Mac tribute on the touring scene today can come close to duplicating. Tusk covers all the great hits of Fleetwood Mac\, which has featured the talents of Mick Fleetwood\, Christine and John McVie\, Lindsey Buckingham\, Stevie Nicks and others over the years. The five seasoned\, well-respected musicians comprising Tusk have been making music together in various combinations and styles\, in original outfits and in cover bands\, for over twenty-five years. It seemed only fitting that they should come together to form the Ultimate Fleetwood Mac Tribute\, and pay homage to a group that dominated the charts during the band members’ formative years. Authentic-sounding and always respectful\, Tusk leaves no stone unturned in replicating the sounds of one of the world’s best-loved\, top-selling bands. \n\n\n\nReserved Ticket Prices $35 / $45 / $55

SUMMARY:PRP Presents:  The Legend of the Mothman
DESCRIPTION:In 2021\, Bill & Jaci Kousoulas embarked on a research journey to investigate the 1967 Silver Bridge Disaster. This catastrophic event was preceded by a thirteen-month paranormal onslaught featuring UFOs\, Men in Black\, Cattle Mutilations\, and Poltergeist activity. Notably\, over 100 reports described a black\, winged being known as Mothman. The culmination of their eighteen-month qualitative study\, titled “Bridging the Tragedy: Silver Linings in the Mysterious Ohio River Valley\,” showcases interviews with several Point Pleasant natives\, including Jeff Wamsley\, Denny Bellamy\, and Andy Colvin. Their upcoming book will delve deeper into the connection between trauma and paranormal experiences\, extending beyond the confines of the Ohio River Valley.  Join Bill and Jaci at the Malta Library as they share what they’ve learned from their countless hours of research. Surely to be a fascinating (and a little spooky) program!
