I look forward to heading over there in the near future. I tried to get tickets for the event, but they went so fast! I’ve been interested in her work for a while now but have never seen it in person. I’m sure it will be even more special with your music as a part of it.
I was able to snag a ticket that night for the Kemper. It was such a joy to hear you and Julie talk about everything, including the Midwest, thunderstorms, and appreciation of the old masters. What a special night.
This is a wonderful description of your experience. I live in Springfield part-time and discovered Julie Blackmon’s work in person at the Kemper by accident. The exhibit book became a Christmas present. I look forward to hearing you in person soon, perhaps in Springfield or Tulsa. All the best to you.
Thank you for this warm and inspiring article. I live in Springfield, MO and, after hearing that I was excited by Julie Blackmon’s photographs, a friend bought me the book, “Julie Blackmon: Midwest Materials “. A large and lovely book, but it’s always better if you can view the actual photos, especially with music!
Thank you for your great writing and highlighting all the incredible talent in flyover country. I want to come see the show so thanks for posting the times the music is available.
Such a beautiful collaboration. I loved the story , Julie’s work, your music and Birdie’s. I wish I could have been there. It was a very special event.
Thanks for introducing me to this fantastic artist. She really expands the world of your cultural creation for me and is of course fascinating without a connection. I had the pleasure a few years ago to see an exhibition of William Eggleston and the line you mention between them is brilliant.
This was an absolute delight to read and incredibly inspiring. Thank you 🙏🏻
Sublime. These moments are what life is for.

How special and lovely, made me cry with thankfulness. Great way to start my day

I lived in Springfield for years! Small world, loved the music video!
