On July 8th at 7:00pm, Manson’s Hall will host a special evening of live music as part of the Moon Dance Concert series—a double-bill performance featuring Anemara (Transatlantic Folk Quartet) and The Awakeneers.

This unique concert brings together two distinct musical projects for a night rooted in folk tradition, storytelling, and harmony. Anemara draws from transatlantic influences, blending traditional folk sounds with rich vocal arrangements and instrumental depth. Their music carries a sense of travel and cultural connection, weaving together old-world textures with a contemporary sensibility.

Sharing the stage, The Awakeneers offer their own locally rooted sound—known for their layered harmonies and evocative songwriting that reflects the landscapes and spirit of coastal life. Together, the two groups create an evening that moves between intimate storytelling and expansive, uplifting folk arrangements.

The concert is part of Manson’s Hall’s ongoing commitment to bringing live music and cultural programming to Cortes Island, offering residents and visitors a chance to gather, connect, and experience world-class performances in a community setting.
