We here at Music Mothers and Others LOVE talking about gigs that you can bring your kids to. And our next guest Liz Irby is someone who loves this topic as well! She lives in Collorado with her husband and two little  kids, where she works for a music non-profit called the Music Appreciation Society which curates intimate shows for multi-generation audiences.  AND She’s just completed a Masters with Distinction from the Berklee College of Music, with a thesis that explores the potential market for music concerts that provide onsite childcare. Our guest has a history of working in promotions, events, and tour managing — and she is also a singer who currently performs with her 5-piece band called Barely Folk. Joining us via Zoom, all the way across the Pacific ocean, is Liz Irby!
