Buddy Mondlock writes songs. He does it so well that some great songwriters have recorded his songs on their own albums. Guy Clark, Nanci Griffith, and Janis Ian, to name just a few. You might’ve heard his song “The Kid” (recorded by David Wilcox, Peter, Paul and Mary and Cry, Cry, Cry) and maybe even sung it yourself around a campfire. He draws you into his world - where a single snowflake follows the trajectory of a relationship, where you get your pocket picked by a Roman cat, where you might swim over the edge of the world if you’re not careful and where dreams that don’t come true still count.

The matinee will run from 3pm until about 5pm. Doors open at 2pm. Packaged snacks and bottled soft drinks will be available before the concert and during the intermission. There is no admission charge, but goodwill donations from the audience pay the musicians and help to defray the church's event hosting costs. Attendance is limited to 150, and we expect a full house.
