Many people know the music of the Dust Bowl era without connecting it to the crisis of the 30s. Bret Hesla and Mary Preus, of Minnesota Community Sings, are Twin-cities based songleaders with over 25 years of experience guiding community sings. In their capable hands we will gather together around Woodie Guthrie’s “Dust Bowl Ballads” and other folk music from the era. The informal community sing-in includes people of all ages and musical abilities — that means you!
