Piper-Grey played a 30 minute set in Irvine (Hyatt Regency) at the Far West Folk alliance.
We brought out two brand new songs ("Must I Go Alone" and "Signatures in the Sand") plus a few of our standards.
Nice experience to see all those great songwriters and to be playing amongst them.
We hope to do the whole weekend in the future.

Hiatus is over!
Sunday, July 12th, at the Church in Ocean Park, Piper-Grey will appear for a 30 minute set as part of a presentation of songwriters.
A song circle (Lauren Adams, Marc Platt & Jaynee Thorne) comes
on first at 2pm and then sets by Piper-Grey, Sabrina & Craig and then Dale La Duke will follow.
This is very nice room to hear music.

Good health to all.

This past Monday night (3/23/09) in South Pasadena, TROUGH RECORDS showcased nearly all of the artists on the label in an evening of acoustic acts at the Fremont Center Theatre. Every act "brought their A-game", said Dave Morrison, a terrific songwriter who performed that night. It was great song after great song. Many thanks to Lois Tedrow for all she did to provide the space for all of us to perform and husband Tim who not only ran the sound board, but also performed as half of the fine duo, Tedrow-Vreeland.

Piper~Grey's debut album "APPLES" has been named 4th best in 2008 as part of a top ten list compiled by American Songwriter Senior Editor Paul Zollo. The lists were published on December 15th in the latest edition of American Songwriter magazine.

"Apples", the debut album by Piper-Grey, is available now on cdbaby.com.

Trough Records proudly announces the release of APPLES (Catalogue No. TRCP 1314), the debut album from Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter duo PIPER-GREY.

Recorded at Tin Drum Studios with such great musicians as Freebo on fretless bass, Matt Brown on keyboards, Greg Krueger on mandolin and legendary Ambrosia drummer Burleigh Drummond (who also engineered the album), coproduced by David and Earl and featuring 11 new songs (8 of which the duo cowrote), APPLES presents two superbly talented artists bringing out the best in each other and their art.

Filled with beauty, love and adventure ("Ireland," "Tempe," "This Winter's Lullaby" and the spiritually-tinged title track), wistful memories ("Ioway"), celebration ("Open Sails" and the rollicking opener "Anyone Else in the World") and cries for justice and unvarnished rage against war and political gamesmanship ("Tookie," "The Decider"), APPLES soars with the emotion of two gifted voices and unquestionable musical talents forming one incredible sound.
