Most years, from Thanksgiving
through December 25th, we would be playing as
part of The Bittersweet Christmas Band.
In 2020, February Sky will not be playing with the Bittersweets, since
the two halves of the band live 500 miles away from each other, making
live-streaming impractical. We would
have to travel to be in the same place, and all four of us are high risk. However,
we look forward to the 2021 holiday
season – we already have a number of 2020 gigs that have been postponed until
then.
ALL of our engagements this month are online.
PLEASE NOTE: We had an embarrassing
moment when we played an online show for The Coffee House last month, with
dropouts on the audio making most of the show un-listenable. We have not been
able to determine what the
cause of this might have been, but we have done several live-streamed events
since then with no problem. Live-streaming
technology is unpredictable at this point, but we will hope for the best!
Please note that we are presenting THREE services for Unitarian Universalist
churches this month. Don’t be shy about
attending – folks of all religions and no religion are welcome, there will be lots
of music and plenty to think about!
Check our website (www.februarysky.com) for updates, changes and future
gigs. Live-streamed events can be
attended from anywhere! Here is our

"TO LIGHT THE WINTER'S DARK," a Solstice concert with Maggie and Jack
Ferguson, 7:00 p.m. EST, 6:00 p.m. CST - TO BE BROADCAST VIA ZOOM. We had such
a great time doing a Halloween
concert with Maggie and Jack that we decided to do a Solstice concert, but this
time it will be in round robin format, each act singing by turns until the time
runs out. We are running the concert
exclusively on Zoom so that it will be an event where people can come early or
stay a little bit late to chat or to talk with the musicians (the Zoom room
will open 30 minutes before official show time). We can accept up to 100 participants,
so be
sure to register ahead of time if you wish to attend. WE
WILL POST A LINK HERE TO REGISTER FOR THIS CONCERT LATER IN THE MONTH – LIMITED
TO 100 PARTICIPANTS. The sign-up link
will also be posted in an event on our Facebook page.
