David Drury, Shelley Loring, and Luke Ydstie Concert
Featuring Guitar, Flute and Bass.

Saturday, November 19, 2022
7pm Performance

“Friends” is a unique trio comprised of guitarist David Drury, bassists Luke Ydstie and flutist Shelley Loring Barker. Drury and Barker were members of the popular trio “Equinox,” and Ydstie has assumed the role as bassist. Each member has a broad range of musical experience and together they bridge the gaps between musical styles seamlessly and with virtuosity. They take their audiences on a musical tour that personifies modern, standards and contemporary jazz, as well as a blend of indie folk and more.

David Drury is a former RCA recording artist, composer and music educator and has performed in much of the United States including concerts with the Phoenix Symphony and recordings as a session musician.

Luke Ydstie is a member of Blind Pilot and has toured internationally with the band since 2008. He is a member of the Hackles and writes, records, and performs with his partner Kati Claborn.

Shelley Loring Barker has studied and performed from in New York City, California, and Oregon. She studied with Jazz Flutist Hubert Laws and has performed with numerous orchestras and chamber and jazz ensembles. She currently teaches flute and piano at the Astoria Conservatory of Music.

The title of their upcoming concert is Friends and will feature David Drury’s original compositions, including Waltzing Bald Peak, How Long Will It Take, and Teddy’s Tango.

The event is presented by the Partners for the PAC and takes place at the Charlene Larsen Center, November 19, 2022, at 7:00 p.m., located at 588 16 th St. in Astoria, Oregon.
