Celebrate spring with a guitar concert performed by local legend Kat Eggleston and her legendary friends, Tracy Moore and Steve Davidson, at 4 p.m. Sunday, May 11, at Vashon Havurah, 15401 Westside Hwy SW.

Eggleston needs no introduction to most islanders — she is a singer, guitarist, songwriter, and playwright who has performed and taught on Vashon and internationally for more than 30 years, creating many solo and collaborative recordings of original and traditional music that have been distributed worldwide.

Based in Chicago for many years, she toured concert venues and festivals in the U.S., Europe, and Australia, as well as appeared onstage at the Steppenwolf Garage Space, Chicago’s Briar Street Theatre, in “Woody Guthrie’s American Song.” Her Chicago credits also include an acclaimed production of “Snow Queen,” in which she worked alongside composer Michael P. Smith, the writer of such classic songs as “Spoon River” and “The Dutchman.”

She has also composed original music for Vashon Repertory Theatre’s productions of “Kissing the Joy as it Flies: The Wit and Wisdom of Brian Doyle,” and “Oscar’s Journey.” She is currently working on the script for her third play.

Tracy Moore, from Camano Island, trained in classical guitar and renaissance lute. His reputation as a premier 12-string guitarist has attracted the attention of the national press, including Guitar Player and Acoustic Guitar Magazine. Moore was nominated for a Boston Music Award and has appeared with guitarists including Leo Kottke, John Fahey and Tony McManus.

Steve Davison is a fingerstyle guitarist who composes on both the six and 12-string guitar. An aging hipster, his musical career started at age 12, playing the drums in a multitude of rock and roll bands. At the tender age of 19, he saw a life-changing performance on solo acoustic guitar in Denton, Texas by a performer named Thom Ward — and put down the sticks and picked up the guitar.

​His compositions are built around simple melodic structures and focus on the intimate qualities of the wooden guitar and the tonal possibilities of alternate tunings that give the guitar such an extraordinary range.

​Davidson is a two-time finalist and 2005 winner of the solo competition at the Arkansas Acoustic Music Festival, a finalist in the 2009 Ozark Folk Center Merle Travis Fingerstyle Competition, and the winner of the Ozark Folk Center Merle Travis Contemporary Competition in 2016.

In June of 2019, he won awarded the Guitar Player of the Year 2019 by the Arkansas Country Music Awards.

​Davison has been a featured performer on Arkansas Educational Network Television’s “AETN Presents” broadcast, and his music was also used as a soundtrack for another AETN production, “The Historic Bridges of Arkansas”.

​Steve lives in Little Rock and Greers Ferry Lake, in Arkansas.

All are welcome to the concert. There is a suggested donation of $20 at the door.
