Mill Mountain Zoo presents Acoustic Fest on Saturday, August 24, 2019. Schedule: • 1:00-3:00 pm: Joy Tru • 4:00-7:00 pm: Ryan Greer & The Ryan Greer Band Enjoy live music by Joy Tru and Ryan Greer & The Ryan Greer Band. Sip some beer from Three Notch’d Brewing Company while shopping with local vendors. Longfin Grill will also be selling tasty food. Joy Truskowski is a Roanoke, Virginia-based singer-songwriter who performs heartfelt, uplifting, honest, and playful acoustic indie folk pop originals and an eclectic variety of covers. Her voice carries the angelic soulfulness of Joan Baez and the exotic edginess of Grace Slick. She performs refreshing and catchy original indie folk pop songs. "I sing from my heart. I experiment with my voice. I write intuitive, fun, pretty, and silly songs. I also play guitar, flute, percussion, and other things to back up my voice. I perform with a loop station so I can play various instruments, experiment, and harmonize with myself live."
