SPECIAL NOTE: Nina Romanenko originally performed with her band at our monthly Talent Showcase where she clearly displayed exceptional vocal and songwriting talent! She has continued to support EC-CHAP through her Membership, and played a critical role in sustaining our existence during the COVID pandemic through her participation, compassion, collaboration and leadership in our “Virtual Talent Showcase” offering. As a result, she was presented with the “Special Person Award” at the EC-HAP 2022 Annual Meeting.
Horizon Blue was one of the first acoustic bands to perform at The Packing House in 2017. Not only are these folks accomplished musicians, they are outstanding human beings with big hearts. They were invited to be our opening band for a major 2019 Benefit concert with Tom Rush and Matt Nakoa at The Packing House, and remain in a special place in our evolving history.
We welcome these outstanding musicians back to The Packing House stage!
