Towne Meeting performs benefit concert for NC Mission of Hope
PERU — Towne Meeting's benefit concert for the North Country Mission of Hope is set for 7 p.m. Sunday, at St. Augustine's Church located at 3035 N. Main St. in Peru. Towne Meeting is made up of Dennis Hulbert (vocals and guitar), Miles Moody (vocals and guitar), Anastasia Pratt (vocals and bass) and Gary VanCour (vocals, guitar, ukulele, and percussion). The band is known for its unique blend of folk, Americana and acoustic rock, organizers said. 'Towne Meeting's warmth and authenticity has built a loyal following over the years. Seven releases feature familiar covers as well as original works,' promotional materials stated. Sunday's concert marks the band's 12th year supporting the spiritually-based humanitarian organization, according to a press release. 'My husband and I have gone on missions since 2005,' Judy Charland, concert organizer, said. 'As you know, we are unable to travel to Nicaragua for now quite a few years. But the Mission is still going on. In fact, they have started to go to the Appalachia area and have been working in Kentucky. I have not gone on these last two missions here in the U.S., but I still am involved and have been helping to coordinate the summer concerts to benefit the Mission of Hope and their projects.' Donations from the concert will be used to support the ongoing projects of the MOH in the North Country as well as Nicaragua. For more info, visit:
