SONGS for a SUNDAY SALON

happy new year!

i will be performing a few songs on SUNDAY, JANUARY 20th (starting at 7pm) at a lovely writers’ salon at JIMMY’S No. 43.

Featured writers on the 20th include:

Alex Gilvarry

Hester Kaplan

Michael Lowenthal

Sarah Manguso

BROOKLYN, GERMANY, MARYLAND and MORE

the wee babe turns 10 months on monday! she has 2 teeth and sits up all by herself.  she is also a master ukulele-ist.

so, now that she is clearly off and running, i’ve decided to climb (slowly) back into my creative life.

this starts with a fabulous new fellowship i am honored to be a part of at the 14th street y’s LABA HOUSE OF STUDY. 9 NYC-based artists/writers/musicians/chefs convene to create art in response to our monthly study of ancient jewish texts. best part: this year’s theme is EAT!

i also have a few shows coming up this fall. all of them should be wonderful, but i’m especially looking forward to my performance on NOVEMBER 5 in LEIPZIG, GERMANY. i will be performing my SILVER AND ASH song cycle (songs in english, story in GERMAN) in my grandmother’s hometown surrounded by an exhibit of my mother’s artwork. if you happen to be in the neighborhood, please stop by!

see you out there,

my season finale + A LITTLE SUITE FOR THE LITTLE BRIDE

the television networks are gearing up for season premieres, and i am gearing up for a season finale!   since i have no idea what motherhood holds for me, i only have 2 more performances booked for the foreseeable future.  so catch me while you can!  :)

if you live in NYC or BOSTON, please join me and my friend/ collaborator ANNA SOLOMON for our performances of A LITTLE SUITE FOR THE LITTLE BRIDE on 9-22-11 (NYC) or 10-4-11 (BOSTON).   i’ll be singing songs and creating soundscapes on fiddle and guitar routed through all sorts of fun pedals (loops/ delay/ overdrive).   anna will be reading from her novel, THE LITTLE BRIDE.   to get a sneak peek of what you can expect from the shows, check out our interview on WBUR 90.9.

hope to see you there!

BEACON SHOW CANCELLED

due to dear irene, we have cancelled tomorrow night’s performance of SILVER AND ASH in BEACON, NY. the show will be rescheduled, even if that means the baby hangs out on stage with me in her pack ‘n play. for all of you in the southeast/ northeast, stay safe and dry.
