Heather Pierson is a New Hampshire based singer/songwriter, pianist, song leader, and performer with a passion for cultivating joy, both onstage and off. Her sixteenth studio album, Back To The Light, was recorded ‘live on the floor’ in Portland, ME with trio mates Shawn Nadeau on bass and Craig Bryan on drums. This collection of Heather’s originals pulsates throughout with the grooves of New Orleans, the beauty of Appalachia, and Sunday-go-to-meeting celebration. Best known for her ease at the piano and her bell-tone voice that Americana Highways says ‘sounds like timeless wind moving slowly through the trees’, Heather’s live performances with the trio take listeners’ ears and hearts on an uplifting journey with their conversational style of musicianship, speaking the language of music with ease and wit.
In their annual December offering, The Heather Pierson Trio performs the entirety of the ‘A Charlie Brown Christmas’ album as recorded by the Vince Guaraldi Trio, as well as other Guaraldi compositions and holiday favorites. The musical score for ‘A Charlie Brown Christmas’, composed by the late Vince Guaraldi and first broadcast in December of 1965, is just as poignant and
touching as the story and includes the hugely popular hit ‘Linus and Lucy’. Guaraldi’s gentle jazz riffs established musical trademarks that, to this day, still prompt smiles of recognition.
