Villoch benefit to aid hurricane victims

NORWAY — On Saturday, November 24 at 8 p.m. at the Norway Grange on Whitman Street, Andre Villoch will give a benefit performance to benefit the victims of Hurricane Sandy.

There will be no admission charged, but donations are encouraged.

If you haven’t seen Andre Villoch, you are in for a wonderful evening of song (mostly folk and “other”), humor and story-telling. Most recently from the mid West where he has a huge faithful following, Andre now lives in the Oxford Hills and is becoming a fan favorite in Maine including Open Mic at Tucker’s Pub.

He has three albums to his credit which can be heard in 12 countries as well as on iTunes and Amazon. He is currently in the studio working on his fourth album after returning from a successful tour with rave reviews.

Famed for his dynamic vocal range and vivacious onstage wit and charm, Andre is authentic, soulful and gritty. His smooth burgundy voice captivates and reels in the listener.

The Grange should provide the intimate feeling that brings audience and singer together as confidantes. Known for his lyrical prowess, Andre delivers satisfying melodies about life, love and the allure of live music.

With roots in opera, pop, gospel, bluegrass and folk, his songs bear the mark of a rich heritage of musical inspiration.

Come and join in the fun while being entertained and at the same time helping the victims of Hurricane Sandy.

The performance on Saturday evening is being sponsored by Occupy Oxford Hills and the Norway Grange.
