AS OF AUGUST 18, 2020 -
Yes, we're still here, learning about new ways to connect to people
with music. Besides live-streaming, we
recorded an entire service for Northwoods Unitarian Universalist Fellowship in
Minocqua, Wisconsin, which was posted on their website on August 2nd in lieu of
the live service which had been scheduled on that date. We recorded a few songs
for broadcast over
the Boone County Autumn Pioneer Festival’s website. We still have a few
Summer outdoor events
with social distancing in St. Ignace, MI, very close to our home in Trout Lake.
See our Appearance pages for updates, and
STAY SAFE!
February Sky lives in the town of Trout Lake in Michigan's Upper Peninsula,
We are full time touring musicians - or we will be once the pandemic is over. In the meantime, we will be live-streaming
a number of events. Please check out our appearances for details.
"I've had the delight of
watching two long time friends and musicians grow a duo. I've listened to Phil
Cooper for years as part of a duo/trio/ensemble, with singing partner Margaret
Nelson as the constant through all those years. Phil's darlin’ Susan wrote
wonderful songs, sang wacky and ribald songs she'd found elsewhere and became
an ever more deft musician through those years. Now they're a duo - February
Sky - and the combination of Phil's incredible repertoire of very traditional
song and tune and Susan's singer-songwriter orientation and addition of her
skill with other instruments have been blended into something very different
than what either had done before. Same songs, or tunes from previous
repertoires... but whole different flavor. Each time I see them, what they do
gets tighter, deeper, more distinctive. 'Course it helps that both are
thoughtful,
generous people who like each other lots. --Joanne Laessig, Folknet,
