We are so happy to invite you to a coming back out party of sorts. Join us for a distanced, Covid-safe concert in our backyard with our friend, Santa Fe songwriter David Berkeley. It's been a long haul without live music or much to celebrate, but at last, we are ready to start again. If you have seen David before at our house then you know, but if you haven't yet, trust us, this will be a beautiful and moving evening of songs and stories in the most intimate and serene settings. During the pandemic, David wrote and released an album called Oh Quiet World. Each of the songs speak to these trying times. So we can think of no better way to mark the progression toward some kind of normal than by bringing David back to sing for us. Space is limited, so get your ticket now. In the spirit of extra caution, please bring your your own drinks and, if you'd like, your own folding chair. Doors will open at 6:30. Music will start at 7.
(Click here to check Bernalillo is still in turquoise, which ensures gatherings of this size are allowed: https://cvprovider.nmhealth.org/public-dashboard.html If we move back to green, we will have to postpone the concert.)
More on David:
Santa Fe-based songwriter/author David Berkeley has been called "a musical poet" by San Francisco Chronicle, "a double fantasy of Nick Drake and Donovan" by Rolling Stone, and praised for his "lustrous, melancholy voice" by The New York Times.
