Musician Dyhrberg
to entertain seniors

Musician Tom Dyhrberg will entertain when Westbrook Senior Citizens meet at noon on Monday, Feb. 3, in the Spruce Room at Westbrook Community Center, 426 Bridge St. Refreshments will be served followed by a business meeting, according an announcement from club President Carol Hayden.

A Westbrook native, Dyhrberg will sing and play guitar. “Tom offers up a great variety of the kind of songs we love to hear, and welcomes us to sing along with him,” Hayden said.

Dyhrberg, in a statement he contributed, said he studied music at Westbrook High School under the tutelage of Norman Richardson. He then earned a degree in music composition from Berklee College of Music in Boston.

“I have remained a performing musician ever since. In addition to my solo work, I currently play bass guitar in the Don Campbell Band,” Dyhrberg said.
