Events Calendar

Smith & Yarn — Red Yarn’s collaboration with family reggae star Aaron Nigel Smith — are thrilled to perform on the Austin Kiddie Limits Stage at ACL Weekend One! We’ll perform special duo shows on Sat, Oct 7 from 4:30-5:00pm and again on Sun, Oct 8 from 2:15-2:45pm.
We hope to see lots of friends & family in sunny Austin, TX!


We are excited to return to Sellwood Community House in Fall 2023! Red Yarn & the Critters will perform every 2nd Friday at 10:30am, either in the gym or the play yard (weather dependent) starting on September 8!

Weaving folksongs and puppetry into a high-energy, interactive show for family audiences, Red Yarn & Miss Jessie (aka Andy Furgeson and Jessie Eller-Isaacs) blend folk, roots rock, country, and blues into a dynamic sound that is both rooted and modern.
This special duo show will have audiences singing, dancing, stomping, and clapping through the multicultural musical heritage of the USA.
With traditional and original songs—including several from their upcoming album, The Get-Together—Red & Jessie lead audiences through the landscapes of American folklore, introducing their Critter friends along the way. These handmade animal puppets provide comic relief, calm and tender moments, and valuable social-emotional lessons.
Don’t miss this “soulful and genuine” celebration “bringing true folk music of America to kids of the modern era” (Bill Childs, KUTX/PRX Radio).
