Hey Everyone! I just updated a few things including my gig page so check it out. Regarding recordings, they are available through this website but some are out of print or in limited quantity. However I've managed to get most of them up and available on Bandcamp. You can find them there at https://alicegerrard.bandcamp.com—downloadable, either by album or by track. I'll continue to try to get them all up there so there is access. Also, I had 4 songs too many for the project but I recorded and mastered them anyway and will try to get them up on Bandcamp.
Below is a link to the website for Kenny Dalsheimer's film about Alice's life— "You Gave Me a Song" film:

On July 13 2024 PineCone -- the Piedmont Council of Traditional Music in Raleigh, sponsored a super concert in honor of my turning 90!!. It was big fun and included a bevy of wonderful musician friends: Tatiana Hargreaves, Reed Stutz, Jim Watson, Cathy Fink and Marcy Marxer, Phil Cook, Eliza Meyer, Beverly Smith, Phil Jamison, Gordy Hinners, Wendy Hickman, Joe Newberry, Nora Rogers, Kay Justice, Ginny Hawker. It was like home: a bit chaotic, imperfect (the way we like it), some booboos, and lots of fun. Thanks to PineCone and to all the wonderful musicians. I believe Pinecone has a video of the concert lurking on Facebook if you want to take a look: https://www.facebook.com/PineConeNC/videos/848969843793592
