Fellow employees of Gouldsboro Clinic nurse Gail Hasting, who is recovering from recent back surgery, will hold a benefit show to help with her medical expenses beginning at 7 p.m. Saturday Dec. 7, at the Trenton Grange Hall.

The event features the local band Angeline the Baker, which Hasting’s co-worker and member Curtis Russet describes as “up and coming.”

Sepp Huber, Bill Thayer and a third clinic employee, Sheila Unvala Saad, complete the band, which plays its own brand of “Down East soul music” to which you can dance or just sit back, relax and listen.

An extra added attraction, Russet said, is that the clinic’s doctor, Joseph Nabozny, and its manager, Kay Campbell, “will join us on a few numbers,” with Campbell helping out on vocals and Nabozny on the guitar.

Donations will be accepted at the door; refreshments will be on sale; and everyone is welcome to attend.
