This is an in‐person program. Masks are optional at all in‐person library events.
Kimberly Rogers and Steve Thorp make up Da Chara Duo, a Central Oregon music favorite since 2012. The Duo’s brand of eclectic, acoustic music on flute, guitar, and vocals has been called, “the perfect background music,” an effortless blend of folk, pop, and originals: old and new, up tempo and mellow.
Kimberly grew up in Eugene, Oregon, where she was a featured player in several bands and concert orchestras. Kimberly plays both flute and penny whistle, and her beautiful alto voice is featured on many of the group’s numbers. Steve is originally from Boston, Massachusetts, where he grew up playing guitar in a musical household. He plays guitar in all styles: folk, pop, and jazz, and he often sings in two-part harmony with Kimberly. The happily married couple make their home in Redmond with their beloved cat, Kit.
