Tunes on Tuesday: Are You Out Of Your Mind?

Why this tune?

This week’s song is also the title of a cabaret revue I’m presenting at the new District Fringe festival this month
in Washington, DC. I put together a bunch of my songs (and two covers) to
create a narrative that explores our relationships with our 
friends, our partners and ourselves. I invited Barbara Papendorp to perform the show with me,
and we consulted with her good friend Scott Sedar, who
helped us turn my initial list into a more cohesive story.

We ended up with a one-hour program in three “acts” –
”Are we OK?” “That special someone” and 
”Breaking up, taking stock, and moving on.” We’re performing the show five times during the festival, 
between July 17 and 25, 2025. It’s my first venture into the 
theater world and very exciting! if the show goes well, I’d love to perform it in other places!

I wrote the song in 2014. Barbara and I recorded the version 
you’re hearing in 2022 with Mark Saltman and Kelton Norris
but never released it.
