Maria Muldaur performs at the North County Recreation District Performing Arts Center in 2022.

NEHALEM — North Coast Music Project has announced the return of pop icon Maria Muldaur after a sold-out appearance last spring.

Muldaur will bring her Red Hot Bluesiana Band to the White Clover Grange No. 784 at 4 p.m. Sunday. The artist has maintained a solid career since her 1973 hit “Midnight at the Oasis,” touring and recording 43 solo albums of blues, folk, jug band, jazz, country and gospel. Along the way, she graced the works of fellow icons Jerry Garcia, Paul Butterfield and Linda Ronstadt.

In her years of touring, Muldaur has shown a soft heart toward music education programs and children’s music, and has reduced performance fees for music education programs in need. This concert is a fundraiser for music programs at Neah-Kah-Nie schools.

The Neah-Kah-Nie High School Choir will open the show. Doors open at 3:30 p.m. For more information and to buy tickets, visit www.whiteclovergrange.org. The word from the sponsors is to “bring your dancing shoes.”
