Veterans have important stories to tell, and expressing those stories is both instructive for us and healing to them.&nbsp; Nine veterans revealed their hearts and histories to nine Folk Project songwriters, who put those messages to music. The resulting songs will be performed at Troubadour Concerts on Friday, August 28.
They will be joined by Theresa Sareo, Veteran Advocate and Singer/Songwriter, in this consequential evening filled with meaning and healing.
Proceeds will go to benefit veteran healing programs.
