Tamarak Ridge Trio | Classic Country, Pop & Rock

11:30 am - 12:30 pm

Alison Williams

Alison, Joy Williams & Indigo Edge - Strip away the amps, the lights, and the full band setup, and what's left is the Tamarack Ridge Trio — three musicians, real stories, and songs stripped down to what matters most.

The Tamarack Ridge Trio is our acoustic side — an intimate, unplugged take on the modern country, classic rock, and fan-favorite hits you know from our full band shows. We also lead worship music, bringing that same heart and musicianship to services and faith-based events. It's the chance to actually get to know the people behind the music: the stories behind the songs, the harmonies up close, and a connection you feel differently on a smaller stage.

Same award-winning musicianship. Same North Idaho roots. Just a little closer to home.
