ROCHESTER - The Rochester Opera House and The Governor's Inn will be hosting a special concert on April 7 featuring Kacie Grenon and 'Last Reach' to benefit the new Rochester Performance & Arts Center in downtown Rochester.

Kacie Grenon is a 14-year-old singer, songwriter, recording artist from the seacoast area of New Hampshire and has a soulful voice that combines elements of pop, alternative rock, and country.
