This is part of our 100 Things in 2015 challenge. Here’s the full list.

We’re spending the last week of 2015 on Orcas Island, and when we got here we found out there was live music happening! The show at the Random Howse last night was Almost Classical, a trio of young but talented musicians who play string-and-piano covers of pop songs.The house was completely packed; we didn’t have a reservation, and only showed up 20 minutes before the show, but the host was kind enough to set up an extra table for us.

The performers were really good. They’re even doing all their own arrangements! You can see them on Youtube, and you can even order their Christmas album if you so desire.

If you’re on Orcas, Random Howse is a great music venue, and their drinks and food are rather nice. Recommended.
