“The energy and charge of the music cast its spell on every one of us in the audience...”

“You gave the performance of a lifetime...”

“The Deadly Nightshade sidles into the song -- sly, back-alley, side-street truckin’ music with the hint of burlesque gum-popping, hip-swaying strut and flounce... ”

Schedule of Live Performances

As some of you already know, The Deadly Nightshade reunited in the Summer of 2008 to play two gigs. One of these was held at the Institute for the Musical Arts in Western MA's Pioneer Valley, our original stomping grounds. The other was in Long Island, at a concert for the North Fork Women for Women Fund. (As an aside, the last time any of us had played together was a brief reunion in 1984, when we performed at both the National Women's Music Festival and the New England Women's Music Festival.)


So our plan in 2008 was just to see how things went, and then figure out where to go — if anywhere — from there.


Well it couldn't have gone better. Both venues were sold out, we got to spend time with some fantastic people we hadn't seen for many years, we had a wonderful time playing, and, what with all the energy we expended, we lost 12 pounds. So we decided to do it again in the Summer of 2009, and just to keep our waistlines trim and our riffs nice and warm, we’re getting ready for another round this coming July:
