Hailing from Fayetteville, Ark., Dana Louise Idlet, a visual artist, taught herself
to play guitar in 2011 while on an artists鈥� retreat in the Azores Islands.
鈥淚 just got so much joy from it,鈥� she said. 鈥淲hen I got home I wanted to make a career
of it.鈥�
Making the transition from painting to performing was not as difficult for Idlet as
it could have been, as she is the daughter of Ezra Idlet of the Grammy-nominated duo听.听
Idlet said her father helped her on the guitar and with some 鈥渢echnical stuff,鈥� but
more than that, Ezra Idlet (guitar, percussion) is a Glorious Bird, as is his Trout
Fishing in America partner Keith Grimwood (bass). The third Glorious Bird is Adams
Collins (vibraphone and 5-string banjo).
Idlet grew up playing the piano, but before the guitar came into her life, she was
not drawn to a career in music like her father.
鈥淚 was never sure what I wanted to do,鈥� she said.听
However, it was her father and mother鈥檚 dedication to their work, that inspired her
to redefine her own life.
鈥淛ust seeing my parents carving out a life for themselves, they started an independent
record label,鈥� Idlet said, referring to Trout Records.
With Trout Records, Trout Fishing in America was in the first wave of artist-owned
labels to successfully record and market their own music.
From her parents, Idlet learned it is possible, 鈥淛ust to be able to do what you love
for a living.鈥�
On Oct. 5, Dana Louise and the Glorious Birds bring what they love to do for a living
to the stage at 香港六合彩开奖直播.
The evening will feature vibrant, melodic vocals and finger picking to a body of complex
songs. Drawing from jazz and bluegrass, carrying a contemporary beat, the sound is
roots-rooted flung-into-the-future folk.听
