SEDONA, AZ – Join Shondra Jepperson and the Sedona International Film
Festival at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre on July 13th at 7 pm for a special,
last-minute benefit concert. When guests attend this evening of great music
and personal conversation, they’ll also be providing vital support to our
firefighters during the ongoing Pocket Fire with their admission. Known for
its signature interactive format, the “In the Living Room” Music Series invites
the audience to ask questions and connect with the performer, making it a
uniquely engaging experience for every music lover.
This month, Shondra welcomes the incredibly talented guitarist Steve Estes.
With a sound that bridges the gap between classic roots and rock, Steve’s
performance is set to be a highlight of the season. “I’ve been a fan of
Steve’s work for a long time, and I am so honored he made the last-minute
decision to choose this series to share his artistry and his heart for this
cause,” says Shondra.
“It is deeply moving to see an artist use their platform for such an impactful
cause,” adds Patrick. “Steve is donating his concert proceeds to the Eric
Marsh Foundation for Wildland Firefighters. Born from the tragedy of the
fallen Yarnell Hill Granite Mountain 19, the foundation provides urgent relief
to fire crews and their families.”
Estes explained, “With the Pocket Fire raging nearby and 900 local
firefighters on the front lines, this performance leverages the joy of music to
an even higher plane.” For Estes, the goal is simple: “A packed house
dedicated to a big cause is all the pay I’ll ever need.”
Patrick Schweiss, Executive Director of the Sedona International Film
Festival, notes, “We are thrilled to spotlight such vibrant local talent in our
theater, as these intimate performances bring a special energy to the
Sedona arts scene that resonates deeply with our community.”
