COVID PROTOCOLS:

After consulting with epidemiologists and in the interest of the safety of our band members and touring personnel, the safety of our fans (affectionately referred to as our extended musical family) and the safety of the staff at the many venues around the country that we have come to know so well over the last several decades, Carrie Newcomer and her team will require proof of vaccination or a recent negative Covid test (w/in 48 hours) For entry into all of her indoor shows for the remainder of 2021.

Masks will be required as well for all those in attendance, and for all staff at the venues. If vaccination rates improve, and infection rates begin to stabilize, we can revisit down the Road, but this is where we are. We very much want the shows to Go forward. Safely of course.

If food and beverage are available in the venue, no service should be permitted within 10 feet of the front and side perimeter of the stage and masks should not be removed in that area for any reason.

Carrie and her touring musicians and any crew are is fully- vaccinated.

We look forward to seeing you and making some much needed music. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
