The Daily Bruin

We are privileged to welcome guitarist Doyle Dykes in concert at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 22, in Wood-Mar Auditorium. The event is free and open to the public.

Dykes is arguably the most gifted fingerstyle guitarist alive today, and he has dedicated himself and his gift to the Lord wholeheartedly. When he plays, he blends Scripture and inspirational stories into his music that are fully engaging to the listener. You can catch him on his Sunday String-Along program on YouTube.

Doyle is a godly treasure, both as a person and as a musician, and you won’t want to miss this rare opportunity to spend an evening with him.

In addition to his Saturday night performance, Dykes will be hosting a guitar clinic that afternoon from 1 to 3 p.m. in Ross 208. To reserve a spot, contact Emma Rieth at erieth@georgefox.edu.

The George Fox climbing team will be making breakfast burritos on the quad tomorrow morning (Friday) between 7:45 and 10 a.m. near Klages! They will be free and are to promote our upcoming event, the Mock Comp, on Friday, April 14.
