Mx. Justin Vivian Bond: Dendrophile April 12, 2011

Acclaimed by The New Yorker as an “artful, gender-bending, truth-telling illusionist,”
Mx. Justin Vivian Bond and a live band featuring Thomas Bartlett (piano), Jack Petruzelli (guitar), Brad Albetta (bass), and David Berger (percussion), perform songs from the artist’s first solo CD, Dendrophile. Celebrating a love of nature that goes beyond a simple walk in the woods, Bond wrote most of the original songs while straddling a moss-covered log on a mountain in Tennessee. Mx. Bond’s original songs are complemented by singular interpretations of works by Nina Simone, Karen Carpenter, Joan Baez and Joni Mitchell.
