The Shifting of Shape
January 31st – 7pm CST
An evening of music and storytelling with Tim Britton and Tracy Chipman
The Shifting of Shape, is an live/online concert and homage to the deep well of music and story from the wild landscapes of Scotland, Ireland, England and Wales. The Shifting of Shape aligns us with the quickening energies of Imbolc and the regeneration of what’s to come.
Music and storytelling are set deep in our human bones and more than ever we need the evocative intelligence of these artforms to weave in, with and through the fabric of our lives and our communities linking us to the Old Ways and precious source of life beneath our feet.
We are asking for a suggested donation of $10 -$25 per person.
Doors open at 6:45
About the Artists:
Tim Britton
Hailed as “a phenomenon” by TIME magazine, Tim Britton is renowned for his emotive artistry on the rare Irish uillean pipes, wooden flute and tin whistle. Born into a family central to the Philadelphia folk music community, Tim has been performing with the crème de la of Irish music, since breaking onto the Celtic scene as a young prodigy over forty years ago, appearing on as many records. He has been featured on A Prairie Home Companion and All Things Considered, among many other radio and television shows. Tim is also in demand as an award winning sound engineer and producer.
Tracy Chipman
Tracy stepped onto the path of storyteller 25 years ago under an Oregon hazel tree and has never looked back. She has listened, told and carried a lion's share of stories around the wide, wild world breathing new life into this ancient transformative art, co-creating with listeners of all ages.
From 1996 – 2004 Tracy returned time after time to Scotland’s Outer Hebrides islands with the Hebridean Folklore Project where she visited with and recorded over 40 Gaelic speaking elders. She was gifted with many stories and given permission to share them with others. In 2016 the body of analog recordings were digitized and archived at The Digital Archive of Scottish Gaelic through the University of Glasgow.
