Song Tales from the American Edge

Poster by Joanna Johnson

Award winning singer-songwriter and storyteller Kiya Heartwood announced today that her one woman show, Song Tales from the American Edge will be a part of the Orlando International Fringe Festival in Orlando, Florida. Kiya Heartwood is an international touring singer-songwriter and storyteller who “sings tales of underdogs from all over, with a distinctly American, soulful sincerity.” From tales of racehorses like Man O’ War to cross dressing confederates and puritan pirates, Kiya Heartwood is "an award-winning American singer-songwriter who writes smart, funny and poignant songs about the famous and not-so-famous legends of America." Heartwood’s show will be performed five times at the Orlando Art Museum over the course of the Orlando International Fringe Festival.
  Kiya Heartwood’s Song Tales from the American Edge was featured at last summer’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland. There were over 30,000 worldwide and UK based artists who performed at this event, with Heartwood’s show receiving a four stars review from Broadway Baby Magazine. The performance dates for the Orlando Fringe are : May 14th Press and Other Artist Preview Thursday, May 14th 1 pm, Saturday, May 16 8:30 pm Sunday, May 17 1:30 pm Tues, May 19th 6:15 pm Thursday, May 21st 8 pm Saturday, May 23, 2 pm. Tickets are $10 and available here. http://orlandofringe.ticketleap.com/
 
  Kiya Heartwood (Stealin Horses, Wishing Chair) lives in Austin, TX and has been performing for more than 30 years. Regarding this latest production Heartwood stated, “To me it's great to sing the stories of the underdogs and outsiders who aren't living on Wall Street bonuses. As Margaret Atwood wrote in The Handmaid's Tale, “We were the people who were not in the papers. We lived in the blank white spaces at the edges of print. It gave us more freedom. We lived in the gaps between the stories. Those are the stories I want to tell.” The Orlando Art Museum is a new venue for this year’s Fringe Festival. The Orlando Art Museum is located at 2416 N Mills Ave, Orlando, FL, 32803, Orlando, FLA

Three Weeks Review 8/21/14

"......Channelling down-home friendliness and shades of Janis Joplin, Heartwood is a fine and engaging storyteller. Quickly winning over the crowd, she soon has the audience singing along, and leaves them pondering those seldom told tales." 
[Dave Fargnoli] Three Weeks Magazine

Fest Magazine 8/9/2014

8/9/2014 Fest Magazine Live Show Review by Alice Saville 

"The Edge, here, is a more marginal America that isn’t always a winner - made up of ordinary people, fighting or escaping the country’s relentless narrative of capitalism, cheap labour and globalisation. Kiya Heartwood is an acoustic guitarist and singer-songwriter from oddball oasis, Austin, Texas; but she sings tales of underdogs from all over, with a distinctly American, soulful sincerity.

........she’s clearly capable of wrestling an audience tens of times this tiny size into foot-stamping, chorus-joining submission. A soulless Edinburgh black box space might not be the best place to cosy up to her distinctive, atmospheric songs, but she’s a seasoned enough performer to light up any room with flickering, folksy warmth."
