joe says "dave noys"

Joe was saddened to hear of the recent loss of an important member of our community. Dave Noyes was a skilled and dedicated musician who gave Portlanders great joy from his performances with the local band Rustic Overtones, and was also a husband and father to his beloved wife and son. Joe urges you to learn more about this impressive man by reading his obituary here.

Tonight, April 3rd, the State Theatre is hosting Good Grief: A Celebration of the Life and Music of Dave Noyes, featuring performances by Rustic Overtones, The Fogcutters, Royal Hammer, Kenya Hall, Jaw Gems, The Ghost of Paul Revere, Lyle Divinsky, Model Airplane, Red Eye Flight Crew, Micromassé, Raging Brass and more. The afterparty will be held at the Portland House of Music. Proceeds will benefit the Noyes family. Learn more about the event here.

If you can't attend the event, Joe encourages you to support the family directly by visiting this GoFundMe page.

Joe offers his condolences to everyone who knew and loved Dave, and his thanks to everyone supporting his family during this difficult time.
