Libraries. Where would we be without them?
Given the literary aspect of Stereo Stories – with its emphasis on quality writing – and the embracing, innovative nature of libraries, one should not be surprised that libraries have hosted quite a few of our concerts.
Williamstown Library was first to get onboard in April 2015, where we played a one hour bracket in the upstairs gallery. We brought our little PA, plugged in and presented eight story-songs, from Nick Gadd’s parenting story based on Massive Attack’s Protection to Steph Payne’s summer holiday camp story about Cher’s If I Could Turn Back Time.
