SUMMARY:A Place to Call Home
DESCRIPTION:Bellingham local Bo Bestvina shares incredible guitar playing\, soul-stirring lyrics\, and stories about finding a place to call home. \nFor years\, Bo had wanted to stitch together a creative life as a musician and writer.

In all of the changes\, Bo wrote an album exploring his folk roots\, fingerstyle guitar and songs to make people laugh\, because sometimes you just gotta laugh. \nCome listen to Bo’s songs and stories\, and get a chance to reflect on your own journey towards wholeness\, however unusual that may look. \nCome out on Oct. 2nd at 7:00 pm to hear Bo’s music. \nWebsite: www.bobestvina.com\nTickets: www.bobestvina.eventbrite.com/
