Ghost Stories and Songs with the incomparable Kim Weitkamp!
Oct. 29th, 7:00pm at the Field Arts and Events Hall, Port Angeles
Kim’s darker stories are some of her most requested pieces all year long, not just around Halloween. As dark as they are, audiences are surprised to find themselves laughing in the oddest of places. Kim’s comedic abilities are on display as she carefully tucks moments of laughter into her darker pieces. A simple and effective way to give the audience a moment to breathe. Another big surprise of the night is when she pulls out her guitar and, with a haunting but milk and honey voice, closes several pieces with music.
While these stories are chilling, Weitkamp is never gory or insanely violent; rather, she is quirky, surprising, and psychologically unnerving. Women spin off their skin, children rise from frigid waters, and head bones rattle in their graves. This event is not recommended for children under the age of 13.
Storyteller Kim Weitkamp has 10 award-winning albums, executive produced and/or designed 32 albums for other performers and has hosted an award-winning morning show for a tri-state radio network. She joins us in the Sunset Lounge for a special Halloween event featuring some of her most-requested darker stories, speckled with her signature sense of humor and accented with live music. Learn all about her at her website. Here is a video of one of her typically heartfelt (non-ghost) stories — The Lap, and one of her creepy stories, The Boo-Hag.
“If we are talking rock and roll, Tina Turner was a national treasure; country has Dolly Parton; and in the world of storytelling, we have Kim Weitkamp.” Steve Perry, Highway 89, Sirius XM Storyteller
