Heather Hardy is not your average musician, in ability or experience. She once played a secret concert in communist East Germany before the Berlin Wall fell and is in the Blues Hall of Fame. She played in the NYC subway for tips and has toured Europe several times. She was trained as a classical symphony pianist and violinist at the prestigious Manhattan School of Music, but transitioned to blues and jazz. She has worked with Allen Ginsberg and the legendary Sam “Bluzman” Taylor. She won the 2011 TAMMIE for best string musician in Tucson. On Saturday, January 28, 2012, she will do a concert, playing both piano and violin at the Pima County Tucson Women’s Commission at 240 N. Court Ave. Sabra Faulk, another well-loved Tucson musician will be accompanying her on guitar and harmonies.
