The Portland Community College Rock Creek music program continues its diverse series of short concerts/lectures with Tim Connell and Eric Skye in the Forum, Building 3, at the Rock Creek Campus, 17705 NW Springville Road, Portland.

The concert is presented in conjunction with the Tuesday evening Music Appreciation class and is open to the public. A donation is appreciated but no one will be turned away. Parking is $2 (permits available at parking machines).

Tim Connell is recognized as “a world-class mandolinist” by Mandolin magazine and is a graduate of the New England Conservatory of Music. He regularly tours Europe and North America and is also a member of the acclaimed Portland groups Stumptown Swing and Rio Con Brio. Often billed as an acoustic jazz guitarist, Eric Skye actually occupies a unique niche between Americana, jazz, and blues. Their latest release, June Apple, is a unique and unexpected take on traditional American fiddle tunes arranged for mandolin and guitar.  For more information, please visit http://ericskye.com/tag/tim-connell/.
