Saturday, November 9, 7-9:30pm, Just North United Church of Christ, 2040 W. Henderson Rd.

Just North UCC and First Unitarian Universalist Church of Columbus are co-sponsoring a concert to benefit a Honduran family of four living at Just North while they pursue asylum. The parents (“Juan” and “Maria”), with one small child at the time, walked for 15 months from Honduras to the US-Mexican border, where they were briefly “caged” with their toddler. Shortly after, “Maria” gave birth to their youngest child, then the family traveled by bus to Columbus, where they are living at Just North as they pursue a very strong case for asylum in the US.

Here is their story:

The performing artists:

Sally Fingerett is an award-winning singer-songwriter, a contemporary author, and a founding member of the musical comedy group, “The Four Bitchin’ Babes.” She has released 14 CDs, written music for the theater, television and film, and contributed songs to 15 various philanthropic compilation recordings. She has performed on more than 800 stages around the country.

Sirens is formed around the duo of Kay Harris and Molly Pauken, two of Ohio’s most sought-after studio and live-performance musicians. Sirens music is all about the unique melody, the expression through lyric and voice and the texture of acoustic guitar and bass coming together to create unique but timeless pop songs. Their original compositions range stylistically from pop to acoustic rock to blues to funk to folk to create Sirens’ own unique sound.

Joining Kay and Molly will be Pete Cary on guitar, bass and vocals, and Jeff Peters on drums.

Tickets: $20 general admission, $40 per family, and may be purchased online. Under 12 will be admitted for free.

Additional donations will also be gratefully accepted.
