Happy September, everyone! I’ve got concerts in WA, OR, UT, NM and TX this month, starting tomorrow night:
September 2nd, 7:30-9:30pm
Sooj & Betsy House Concert
Port Townsend, WA
Come on over for an evening of whimsy and wit, cello and guitar, siren song and magic! S. J. and Betsy‘s skill, presence and desire for connection with their audience consistently shine from every stage they cross. Original songs are the focus, here, flavored with everything from classical pieces to rowdy jazz or Celtic tunes. In short, there’s something for everyone, and there’s a place for you in amongst the sweetly falling notes these powerful womyn create.
Doors open at 7:00pm and music begins at 7:30. Ages 8 and up, please. Special thanks to Ellen and crew for hosting!
Note: address and parking info will be sent to you with your ticket purchase. We’ve got just 40 seats available, so don’t wait until the last minute!
Then we’re off to Faerieworlds in Oregon for concerts, workshops, and magic. Our main stage concert is late Friday afternoon, we’ll be teaching an improv/jam workshop on Saturday afternoon, and we’ll perform on one of the smaller stages on Sunday afternoon – don’t miss our friends’ performances, either! Sharon Knight and Nymbol’s Secret Garden are back this year!

WHAT ELSE IS NEW?
Did you know that you can now support BOTH Alec AND Betsy on Patreon, should you choose? We helped Alec set his Patreon videos up on Sunday. They’re pretty cute!

I do not currently run a Patreon, but I have a more stripped down subscription service! Want me to send you a new, exclusive, unreleased song once a month for about $10? Sign up here if you like!
It’s all run through Paypal, so it’s very easy to deal with if you’re set up there. Get started and get new music!
Thank you all, as always, for being part of the fun that is my little career. It’s been a lovely summer, and I’m looking forward to this month’s travels and shows. Thanks for reading, thanks for listening, and thanks for believing!
