Star in a video

One of Rappahannock County’s favorite bands — The Nethers Hot Club — is shooting a new music video, and you can be in it.

“Here's the story,” says band leader Linda Heimstra. “Last spring I was awarded a [RAAC] Claudia Mitchell Grant so I could study the amazing art of painting portraits with oils. I started by painting musician Wendi Sirat, and now I'm ready to unveil the painting, and the band is going to put on a show to celebrate. And while we’re at it, let’s have a party and shoot a video!

“Come and be a part of the audience as we shoot our upcoming show at the RAAC Theater. The new group Ukulele Ladies will be opening for us, featuring Wendi with Jeannie Wall and Pati Brumfield. In between sets, we will have the long-awaited (drum roll please) unveiling of the portrait..”

There are several other surprises in store as well.

Music and fun begins at 8 p.m. this Saturday, June 24, at the RAAC Theater in Washington directly across the street from Tula’s. Tickets are $15 and can be reserved by calling 540.987.3349 or email lheimstra@earthlink.net
