Three big shows in April!


I am extremely stoked for this month because not only is it spring and I have found a giant pussy willow bush that I didn’t even know about right in my backyard at work, but I have three really sweet shows coming up in wonderful rooms with some awesome friends!



April 7 The Rockwell Theatre , Somerville, MA I’ll be sharing the night with the wonderful Joseph Allred, & lovely Steve LoVerme! Presented by Once, it’s a beautiful listening room & expect to hear some Sandy Denny & Lute!



April 15 Cafe Nine, New Haven, CT – I’ll be opening up for The Suitcase Junket! He’s absolutely amazing & I can’t wait ! This is my first time at Cafe Nine and I’m extremely excited :))



April 24 Pumphouse Music Works , South Kingstown, RI with Haunt the House (solo) & John Faraone! I love love love the Pump House , if you’ve been you love it too! There’s no better place to hear some of my very favorite songwriters, & also me! I hope you’ll join us because it will be a truly wonderful evening.

As you might know, today is bandcamp Friday & I was asked to contribute a track which will benefit the mighty Terrascope Magazine, the world’s premiere source for psyche folk & all things musical & magical. Check it out here, I gave a homemade demo of a new song “We Float down the River”. Terrascope Comp

More good news, I went back into the recording studio on Tuesday night so there will be some new music later on this year…!

Also in case you haven’t seen, I am very proud to say I was chosen to take part in the 80 Plays around the World for Bert Jansch , the Bert Jansch Foundation has been sending beautiful guitars Bert might have liked around the globe for musicians to cover a song he played . I chose Omie Wise from the Pentangle record Reflection that I learned how to play guitar by listening to as a teenager.

Here’s my contribution:



I hope you like! I had a lot of fun filming it, on one of the first takes a giant red tailed hawk came sailing over and perched right in front of me in a tree & seemed to be listening . It was an incredibly magical experience!

Happy Spring & get out there & enjoy nature!

Love, Allysen
