Fun gig at nursing home

Love performing for seniors who have been isolated due to Covid restrictions. Sometimes you have to be creative in the way you deliver the music. Thankfully, one particular nursing home has found such a way.

Note: Works best during good weather.

Social Distancing Gig for Seniors

My first paying gig in 7 months had me performing for residence at a nursing home in Beaverton, Oregon on Tuesday, September 22.  I was hooked up via a bluetooth headset/mic that was connected to a small bluetooth speaker that a nurse would take from room to room so the residents could hear me.

Some of the sweetest smiles and reactions I’ve ever received took place.  Residence would sing along in their chairs or beds, some of them grooving as best they could.  Some of the best 90 minutes I’ve had during these Covid days.
