Heather Pierson Trio brings jazz to The Waldo

    The Waldo Theatre is pleased to bring back the Heather Pierson Trio on Sunday, July 28 in a 7 p.m.  An annual favorite during the holiday season, this will be her first show featuring her original music, as well as well-loved standards and classics.

    Heather Pierson is a New Hampshire based singer/songwriter, pianist, song leader, and performer with a passion for cultivating joy, both onstage and off. With a toe in each of the realms of New Orleans jazz, blues, and folk, her multi-genre songwriting places her in a category all her own, one honed by decades of diligent practice and curious exploration.

    Her trio features Shawn Nadeau on bass/vocals and Craig Bryan on percussion/vocals, and their live performances of a rich variety of Heather's originals, jazz and blues standards, and unique re-workings of familiar classics are a dynamic expression of their deep friendship. Heather's forthcoming album, “Back To The Light” is slated for release in September 2024.

    “There's a real pureness to her voice as she leads us through intimate corners of her experiences and tells stories with a Joni Mitchell kind of edge… Her hands float on and above the piano keys with the ease of a longtime player; it's as if it's as second nature as breathing.” - Aimsel Ponti | Portland Press Herald

    The Trio is also well-known for their beloved annual “Charlie Brown Christmas” tour, wherein they present their interpretations of the work of the late great jazz pianist and composer Vince Guaraldi.

    Online tickets are available for $20 in advance, $25 the day of the event, with limited front row seats for $40. Doors open at 6 p.m. for the 7 p.m. show. Concessions,
    including beer and wine, will be available for purchase. To purchase tickets and for more information about The Waldo, parking and upcoming events, visit: thewaldotheatre.org.
