Hear it From Heather

We finally did it! What a lovely experience opening a sold-out show for Gordon Lightfoot at the Weinberg Center in Frederick, Md, on July 20 ... after a few reschedules bookended by Covid cases. I healed up in the knick of time. Lucky thing, because tour dates begin to abound, with Musikfest in Bethlehem, PA, Aug. 6 and a Massachusetts run coming up in late August. We are ready to add even more dates, and would love to get your venue, porch, studio ... hell, even your driveway ... on the calendar. Please EMAIL ME with booking requests and venue recommendations.

All this stillness made me restless, but quarantine was also a safe place to just TRY things. Like this version of "The Animal Crackers Song" I did stuck at home with my personal Partridge Family. Or shooting and editing an entire music video myself for "My Kinda Quarantiner," which went on to win a slate of awards. At "Quarantimes," in the menu, you can hear and read how I spend my time. Oh! And I uploaded basically my entire catalog (including exclusives) to Bandcamp.

7-hour drives to play historic opera houses before driving south for studio session work after a stop in Philly to play a concert series ... opening for greats like Gretchen Peters and Gordon Lightfoot ... Hell yeah, don't mind if I do.
