A sold-out concert from a group of local musicians raised money to benefit Half Moon Bay farmworkers Saturday night.
The Half Moon Bay community used the power of music to heal after the mass shooting last month and support farmworkers in the long term. Mark Kostrzewa, who organized the event, is an acoustic guitar player who lives in Montara. His performance at the Odd Fellows Hall on Main Street took on extra meaning.
"A bit more emotional than the other ones. I mean, they're always emotional for me because I'm writing my own music and everything and come from my own stories. But yeah, it ties in a little bit more," he said."We're just very happy to see the support." Kostrzewa started the show Meeting of Acoustic Minds, which features other notable musicians. The concert series was planned for April or May, but he decided to move it up to raise funds for the farmworker community still traumatized by the mass shooting in January. "You've got to be kidding me. My God, San Mateo County, Half Moon Bay, one of the richest counties in the United States, and people sleeping on floors or worse. And you're just like, 'Oh come on, that's absurd.
