UPPER LAKE – Guitarist and vocalist Mike Wilhelm and vocalist percussionist Neon Knepalm will give a brunch concert in the courtyard of the Tallman Hotel/Blue Wing Saloon in Upper Lake on Sunday, May 31, from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m.
Appearing as their very special guest will be the award-winning American Indian actor, musician and activist Gary Farmer who will supply harmonica and vocal.
Knepalm was formerly lead singer with Gary Farmer and the Troublemakers whose current tour brings Farmer to Northern California.
A few highlights from his long film career include 2006’s “Disappearances” with Kris Kristofferson, “Adaptation,” “Smoke Signals,” “The Score,” “Ghost Dog,” “Dead Man,” “Dark Wind” and “The Brave.”
This combination of musicians and personalities is a truly rare event well worth experiencing.
