Heather Pierson Trio: Debut and CD Release Celebration

"Heather is like two great acts in one, sliding from sweet acoustic Appalachian old-timey vibe with Patty Griffinesque lyrics to brassy New Orleans blues piano with a bone thrown to Bessie Smith."
DC Bloom | Lone Star Music Magazine

Heather's twelfth CD release, Lines and Spaces, will be released on November 1, 2019, and it promises to be her most ambitious and most personal release to date. It will feature the familiar and impeccable sounds of the acoustic trio, joined by some incredible performances by Craig Bryan on drums, Mike Sakash on clarinet and tenor sax, George Wiese on trombone, as well as a full choir of Norway Community Sing friends on back-up vocals.

Throughout her colorful career, her eclectic skill set continues to propel her onto concert hall stages and into barrooms, coffeehouses, resort hotels, living rooms, and churches. Her nearly non-stop performance schedule (with over 200 shows a year) speaks of her tireless work ethic and endless devotion to her crafts. Defying genre and classification and yet fully embracing all musical styles, Heather is an artist who speaks the language of music in as many dialects as her abilities will allow. Her lifes work, she says, is to share her love of music and her gratitude for life with others one song, one heart, and one mind at a time.

eather is a favorite of LHC. She has done concerts at all our various locations. The piano is tuned and ready.
