A musician who has been part of our Friday morning live music segments, Isaiah Dreissen, joins the show to talk about a few "projects" he has going on. First off is the Cedars Project. The "Cedars Project" in Little Chute refers to the Treaty of the Cedars, a 1836 agreement where the Menominee Indian nation ceded approximately 4 million acres of land to the U.S. government, opening up the Fox River Valley for settlement. Isaiah has created a special space to enhance communities through art and commerce. He also fills us in on the 4th annual Cedars Festival. It's coming up on September 12th and 13th and will feature music from Feed The Dog, the Joseph Huber Trio, and more. We're excited to watch this grow organically. Then Dennis Peters, and Ashley McDermid join for the Heights Pub & Parlor Music Series. This week we feature the music of Chris Hendricks. From Chris's website: “Chris’s life story is like a beautiful ballad that has fluid movement, graceful moments, and inspiring emotions. He is an artist, an inspirational speaker and believes passionately in sharing his message of loving kindness, hope and the value of each and every person’s life..." His music and energy are just amazing! So blessed he joined us this morning.
