Event

Dana Lyons and Ken Bevis Live at The Merc!

The Methow Valley Citizens' Council presents environmental troubadours Dana Lyons and Ken Bevis as they mix ballads and comedy, singing inspiring songs about our beautiful home, the natural world and global issues.

We will have cash-only tickets available at the door. This event sold out last year, so get your tickets early!

Dana Lyons is best known for his comedy hit song Cows with Guns. He has recorded eight albums during his lifetime artistic career, including Circle the World and At Night They Howl at the Moon: Environmental Songs for Kids. Working around the Earth to raise awareness, activism, and funds for environmental and social justice issues, Dana has collaborated with Dr. Jane Goodall and her environmental group Roots and Shoots. Bringing together a mix of comedy, ballads and love songs, Dana's sharp wit and beautiful voice have him performing at venues across the US and around the world. Dana lives in Bellingham.

Ken Bevis uses his ecological knowledge as Stewardship Wildlife Biologist for the Department of Natural Resources to create wonderfully moving and informative songs about our environment. Ken is a lifelong hunter, fisherman, bird watcher and naturalist. He lives in the Methow Valley with his wife Teri. Ken will be singing songs from his recently released debut album, Wanderer's Moon.
