Iota Press Concert a Success!

The Alphabet Baroque Club had a great first stop on the road to the flames! Huge thanks to Eric Johnson at Iota Press Workshop. His support and enthusiasm is a big boost for us. We were essentially sold out! The audience was attentive and had fun along with us. Sighs were heard at the right places, and thunderous applause where appropriate.

This concert has so much beautiful music! So many beautiful songs, alas without words! But, wait! Who is that flying in to rehearse with the ABC in February? It is Ruth Cunningham, sound healer and founding member of Anonymous 4! Ruth will be joining us in Galway, but, if you want a little foretaste, a select few can hear a house concert with the ABC and Ruth on February 21, venue TBA.

Hell came to us first

In late October, Sonoma County, home to the Alphabet Baroque Club, was burning. Due to a high wind event, Public Safety Power Outages, and the Kincaid Fire much of where the Alphabet Baroque Club lives was under mandatory evacuation orders. The image above shows the fire, but especially shows how the wind was blowing the fire closer and closer to the towns of Healdsburg, Windsor, Geyserville, and Santa Rosa. Had it hopped the 101 freeway it could have burnt all the way to the coast, perhaps taking towns such as Sebastopol, Freestone, and Occidental with it.

We are so very grateful it did not hop the 101! However, we had to cancel our October 27 concert at the wonderful Iota Printworks in Sebastopol. Thankfully, we have been able to reschedule for January 25, 4 pm, at the Iota Press Printworks once again! Thank you so much, Eric Johnson, for working with us.

This event did make me wonder if we wanted to bring our audiences with us to hell….

The good news is, we will never quite get there! Come hear our concert, and find out!
