June 2011 newsletter

My vacation from performing is over. I got a bunch of new songs finished, caught up on my to-do list at home, took a couple of trips, including 10 days at the Kerrville Folk Festival (inspiring!). But I miss the showing off, I mean sharing my music and I’m revving things up again.

June 26th - Monday evening from 7:00 to 8:30 pm, I’m playing at the Nicollet Island Amphitheater.

July 7th – Thursday evening from 7:30 to 9:00 pm – Lake Harriet Bandshell.

These are part of the Minneapolis Parks Outdoor Concert series. The sun WILL be shining and I have some lovely new pink and gold clothes to wear in celebration.

 The Nicollet Island Amphitheater is just east from the Nicollet Island Inn, tucked behind the Pavilion. The Mississippi river is spectacular right now from all the rain we’ve been enjoying (you can see the upper falls from the amphitheater) but I am glad the rain stops tomorrow morning. Bring something to sit on – the grass may still be damp.

 We’ll sing the new State Song together - Why Minnesota My Minnesota. You can preview it by clicking this link to YouTube.

 Thanks!
