 Pukkelpop, August 20, 2005:
According to our special correspondent Gerd, Heather Nova started her Redbird Tour 2005 at Pukkelpop festival in Belgium by performing ten songs:
Welcome / Heart And Shoulder / Mesmerized / Walk This World / Redbird / Motherland / All I Need / Just Been Born / London Rain / Sugar
Four songs were from the new album Redbird. Mesmerized, Redbird, and Motherland were played at Pukkelpop for the very first time. Unfortunately there were sound problems with the microphone at the beginning of the concert.
Download here the first six songs from the set (including all new songs), recorded from internet live stream:

 On July 28th, a new post from Heather on the official site revealed a very pleasant surprise: famed (and missed) cellist Nadia Lanman will once again play with Heather, albeit for one night only. Be there or be square!
Here's Heather's announcement:
summer heat. looking forward to being back on the road - festivals first. then in the fall a tour with your old favourites on stage - berit on guitar, laurie on drums, matt on bass and a new keyboard player, simon, who has a few other tricks up his sleeve.
some treats along the way: in shepherds bush nadia lanman, who many of you will remember as the very lovely and talented cellist will make a guest appearance - something i very much look forward to... anyway, stay cool. and see you soon.

Sadly, Nadia had to stop playing with Heather because of pain in her hands. We hope her reappearance means she's getting better. |

Heather Nova Concert News : Unconfirmed: Heather Nova plays in Hanau
|

 According to an article to the newspaper Frankfurter Rundschau last Saturday, Heather Nova plays August 25, 2005 in Hanau (Amphitheater). Hanau is a town close to Frankfurt/Main. The date would perfectly fit to the dates of the announced Leipzig and Berlin gigs.
Note: No confirmation yet, and also there is no information in the Amphitheater calendar.
Update: Now tickets are sold for the announced Hanau gig on August 25, although the concert is still not confirmed.
