(bitter) sweet side 16 / LIVE performance with Winifred Haun & dancers

hi friend.

(bitter) sweet side 16 is here

https://barrybennett.bandcamp.com/album/the-shut-in-sides-side-16

the "can we find a way" edition.
its just so much right now, i know.
i never thought this little audio diary would turn 16 and i sure didn't think social. economic, and environmental turmoil would all be coming to a head at the same, but here we are.
i guess, in short, what i wish to remind all of us is that we are in fact all connected.
set the fractures so bones can stitch.
Can we find a way? yes.
be patient, but not too patient...
as they say, its an interesting time to be alive!
as always each piece was tracked on a single day.
as always you make it all possible.

oh yeah...also this
On October 4th I'll be performing live with my artistic associates, Winifred Haun & Dancers!
it will be outdoors in the gardens of beautiful Cheney Mansion in Oak Park, a socially distanced masked affair (performers&audience), and it will be beautiful.

not only has it been a minute since I've last performed with WH&D, this will be my first public music making for a live paying audience since lockdown in March.
I hope I remember how...

see you in the ether...
your pal barry
