On the International Day of Music, enjoy two outstanding shows inside one of Oregon’s favorite music houses: McMenamins Old Church, located south of Portland in the city of Wilsonville, Oregon.

At 7:30pm, Syco Billy’s String Band takes the stage for one solid hour of the best French-influenced newgrass/folk music. Following their show, Arietta Ward (aka Mz. Etta) brings funk soul music that makes her Portland’s favored Funk Diva, along with a dynamic three-piece band.

McMenamins has established a long tradition of restoring historic buildings throughout Oregon and Washington. The grandiose McMenamins Edgefield (located in Troutdale, Oregon) regularly welcomes up to 10,000 guests at every show.

The Old Church might very well be the prettiest of all the 56 McMenamins locations. It was sincerely built by descendants of Daniel Boone, located beside an ancient, treasured footway for Native America. And it’s the nicest sounding venue in town. Guests are surrounded by wood and unbelievable stained glass windows, with McMenamins top-line food and beverages close at hand for purchase.
