listen now children a story I’ll tell …

Me, Alice and Diana

We’ve been half-joking about bringing a kitchen table to the Redbird Round shows. I feel comfortable with these ladies on stage, like I’m sitting with them in my own home kitchen. It almost seems unnatural to have a microphone where the table should be.

And that’s exactly the kind of experience we’re trying to create: An intimate setting to hear these songs and the stories behind them. A relaxed format, without a setlist, allows us to respond to each other, song to song, writer to writer, woman to woman. Some story Alice shares, or phrase Diana sings can bring up some long forgotten memory, which probably started around a kitchen table somewhere.

Thanks to all who came out to the shows this last week. We’re looking forward to heading northeast in January and February to cut through this dismal winter gray like a bunch of redbirds.

Come see us. I’ll post more dates to redbirdround.com as soon as they’re available.
