THIS CONCERT IS SOLD OUT!

featuring Will Ackerman, Barbara Higbie and Liz Story with Todd Boston
Sunday December 21, 7:00PM

Three captivating artists who rose to fame recording for the Windham Hill label come together to celebrate the holiday season.

The Windham Hill “new age” image doesn’t do justice to the passionate singer, pianist, fiddler and guitarist Barbara Higbie, whom writer Derk Richardson described as “a jazz pianist who can write and sing like Laura Nyro and Carol King, a prize-winning folk fiddler who will interpret a John Coltrane tune through a French vocal.” Higbie, whose musical associates have included Bonnie Raitt, Bobby McFerrin and Carlos Santana, put together this Winter Solstice ensemble with GRAMMY-nominated pianist Liz Story and the guitar playing Windham Hill label founder, Will Ackerman.

Story’s original compositions draw on influences as various as Claude Debussy, Scott Joplin, Joni Mitchell, and Bill Evans, whose performance at New York’s Village Gate Story cites as a life-changing experience. She has recorded a dozen albums and has been a regular contributor to Windham Hill’s Winter Solstice releases.

Ackerman is a gifted Bay Area-raised guitarist whose self-produced 1976 debut record was successful enough for him to start his own label, and the rest, as they say, is history. Of this show, Higbie says “It’s a show made for people who want to celebrate the season in their own unique way.”
