365 Outtake Tuesday - A winter show with Red Tail Ring

Hello Friends! It's time for another Outtake Tuesday installment where I showcase some of the photos that did not get used for my 365 Photo Project.

Laurel Premo and Michael Beauchamp are just about as sincere and authentic as two humans can get, and watching them play together on stage as Red Tail Ring is a pure joy to behold. Their musicianship is impeccable and their songs sink right in to my marrow. One of my favorite things about watching live shows is witnessing the connection and interactions between the band members and listening to the stories told between songs. Laurel and Michael have such an effortless way of being on stage together, each adding their own interesting side-notes...it pulls you into every song. 

 We normally only seem to cross paths once a year-ish when we all play the Earthwork Harvest Gathering in Lake City, MI, but this year is different! Back in January my band and I were lucky enough to share a couple of shows with Red Tail Ring. We did a show at The Ark in Ann Arbor, and then met up again to do a night at Bell's Brewery on their home turf in Kalamazoo.

This small set of photos was taken at the Kalamazoo show on January 26th.

Enjoy!

The view from the stage as doors were opening. Such a great room!
