Wishing Chair Concert/Potluck at Kaw Point Park (Lewis & Clark Park) KCK
Since 1995, multi-instrumentalist Miriam Davidson and songwriter Kiya Heartwood have made an art of inspiring performances and award winning songs. A Wishing Chair concert is a passionate mix of intelligent lyrics, spell-binding storytelling and breathtaking harmony over a full folk and roll sound. Heartwood's percussive guitar work and wide open vocals compliments Davidson's tasteful use of a myriad of instruments: piano, accordion, banjo, hand drums and bouzouki. This gifted duo seduces the listener with soulful confessions, political broadside, and a wicked groove.
Wishing Chair's music is constantly being acknowledged: Stand Up 8 was featured on many Best of 2010 lists, Folk and Roll Live in Austin was nominated for a 2009 Best of Folk CD and Best Folk Song from JP Folks, they are the 2008 Jane Schliessman Award Winners for Outstanding Contributions to Women's Music and their catalogue has earned high honors from JP Folks (Best New Folk CD, Best Roots Song, 2006), OutMusic (Double Winner 2003, Finalist 2004), Kerrville Folk Festival (Political Songwriting Finalist 2005, 2003), The South Florida Folk Festival (Double Winner 2003), to The Falcon Ridge Folk Festival (Emerging Artist Finalist 2002).
