Come celebrate the release of Born to Live, the debut full-length album from rivertown native Clover Stieve.

Born and raised in Lambertville, NJ, and now based in Frenchtown, NJ, Clover wrote Born to Live as a reflection on navigating profound loss after losing both of her parents at just 26 years old. The album traces her journey through the depths of grief and into a place where she discovered more joy, love, and beauty than she ever thought possible.

This release show will celebrate that journey with an evening that embraces the full spectrum of the human experience - grief, joy, embodiment, connection, resilience, and ultimately, hope.

James Bird is a poet/musician/bard local to the forests and rivers of Western Massachusetts. A live musician at heart, he has shared his ethereal folk music in a diversity of spaces like festivals, farmer’s markets, funerals, wedding ceremonies, ecstatic dances and grief rituals. Myth is a central theme in Bird’s music, using ancient stories to speak to the timeless human experiences of love, loss, friendship, mystery, death and rebirth. After a 6 year journey, his debut album "Riddles" will be released October 10th 2026 via Funnybone Records.
