July is here and with that comes a very busy time of year for me!  The next two weeks especially are filled to the brim in my world, mostly with private functions and obligations – but there are a couple of public shows that you should know about:

Wednesday, July 4th

Happy 4th!  I’ll be performing a few songs on my guitar at Schouler Park in North Conway, NH at around 3:30 p.m.  Also on stage at that time will be my dear friend Tina Titzer and her beautiful Act One Dance Company dancers!

Thursday, July 5th

I’ll be performing with Shawn at Andy’s Old Port Pub on Commercial St. in Portland, ME from 7 to 10 p.m.

Friday & Saturday, July 6th & 7th

Two nights at the seat of one of my favorite pianos, located in the dining room of The White Mountain Hotel in North Conway, NH.

I’m so excited that the quartet jazz shows are coming up very soon!  We’ve been rehearsing a bunch lately and really working hard to present a wonderful evening of jazz standards, some not so standards, and some music of my very own.   Will you be there?

Friday, July 13th at The Little White Church in Eaton, NH

Friday, July 20th at Medallion Opera House in Gorham, NH

Tickets are on sale NOW and available at my website: www.heatherpierson.com.  Get yours today!  I can’t wait to share this music with you!

And finally… today is July 3rd and I’m very proud to say that it was on this day, fifteen years ago, that I had my last drink.   Without music, without commitment to my own health, and especially without the unending love and support from good friends — it wouldn’t be possible.   Thank you all, from the bottom of my heart.

Love,
Heather

Fireworks and fanfare!

Wow, what a great start already to the holiday weekend!  I just got home a short while ago from a great evening of music.  I presented a concert in the conservatory of the beautiful Mount Washington Hotel (what an awesome Steinway grand in that room!) and then, on the way home, stopped to see Shawn and the rest of Audio Kickstand playing at the Red Parka.  They were sounding great as usual!

What are your plans for the weekend?  Here are mine:

Saturday, July 2nd

HEPINATO (that is, of course, myself and the fabulous Nate Towne) returns to Tucker’s Music Pub on Main St. in Norway, ME.  We start around at 8 p.m.

Sunday, July 3rd

I’ll be playing with Joey Burton and Co. up at the Mountain View Grand in Whitefield, NH from 6 p.m. until the dining room clears out (9 or 10 p.m.?).

Monday, July 4th

Two performances!

First, I’ll be in Schouler Park in North Conway, NH at 4 p.m. sharing the stage with members of Tina Titzer‘s fabulous Act One Dance Company.  Music and dance – what a great combination, eh?

Then, Shawn and I will perform at The Met from 7 to 9 p.m. as a lead-up to the fireworks display right across the block in Schouler Park.

Tuesday, July 5th

I’ll be the featured performer as part of the Mount Washington Hotel’s Jazz Night series.  I’ll be accompanied by Brian Hathaway on bass and Dave Ellis on drums for a one hour set in the Princess Lounge starting at 9:30 p.m.

Oh, and I should mention that I just polished up my website a bit.  Click here to go have a look at the changes.  Let me know what you think!  And while you’re there, you really should sign up for my email newsletter if you don’t already receive it.

Wow, then I actually have a couple of days off next week!  I hope the weather’s good because all sorts of things are calling to my attention – the motorcycle, the kayak, the beach, my hiking boots.

Thanks as always for your love and support.  See you at the show!
