@andreagibsonpoetry: I love sharing good news, and this is possibly the goodest news I’ve shared in some time. The artists joining me and the Colorado Symphony at Red Rocks are: Chris Pureka and Sara Bareilles. While Sara and Chris are artists of tremendous talent, they are also artists of tremendous significance to Andrea’s life and legacy. Chris Pureka and Andrea first shared a stage in 2005, and over the next twenty years became close friends and collaborators. I remember how often Andrea would sing Chris’ song “Holy” during their cancer diagnosis, both of us marveling that we were able to smile at each other while singing the lyrics: “I’m doing alright, I’m doing alright, I’m doing alright,” and mean it. Chris had been scheduled to open for Andrea’s last two tours, both of which cancer ultimately made impossible, so being able to open for Andrea at this show feels like the most right and true thing. The moment Andrea and I met Sara Bareilles in a cozy home in Park City, Utah, for the Sundance premiere of our documentary, I knew within minutes that Sara was Andrea’s exact favorite type of person: open, vulnerable, kind, funny as hell. Like Andrea, she seemed allergic to small talk. I hoped the two of them would get to create art together for a long time. I wanted a Gibson-Bareilles musical very badly. But they only had time for one perfect song, “Salt Then Sour Then Sweet.” And now, this show. Andrea collaborating with some of their favorite musicians from the ether. From the team that brought you the Academy Award-nominated Come See Me in the Good Light, this new film, Love Letter from the Afterlife, captures Andrea Gibson’s final performance. Until now, there has never been an entire recorded show of Andrea’s available to watch. We are so excited to share this one, because anyone who ever saw Andrea perform poetry live knows they had a majestic way of turning a rock club into a church that welcomed everyone exactly as they were. On July 5th, beneath the sky at Red Rocks, Andrea’s final performance will be accompanied live by the Colorado Symphony, with Chris Pureka, Sara Bareilles, and me. Every decision behind this show is made to honor the person I love most. ✨⚡️ -Megan Falley #redrocks #andreagibson #poetry
