About this Event

This concert is part of an 8-week tour across several U.S. states featuring two outstanding Northwest musicians bringing their highly applauded "For the Birds" show to a wider audience.

This unique performance engages the power of artistic expression — live music, spoken words, images and poetry — to connect audiences emotionally to the scientific realities of our changing climate through the lens of birds. Ultimately a story of hope, audiences leave the performance feeling empowered to take meaningful action.


"… wonderfully inspiring… the music was magical…”
“You will learn things you didn’t know about birds… Eye opening and uplifting.”

Featuring Nelda Swiggett (piano, compositions), Clif Swiggett (percussion, trombone), and the poetry of Jill McGrath.

Free Admission (donations appreciated).

Hosted by the Citizens' Climate Lobby of Northeast Tennessee
