The Heifer Belles celebrate the release of their new recording Midnight Blue. 

Juliet Gobert and the Heifer Belles celebrate the release of their new recording Midnight Blue with a concert at the historic Nevada Theatre on Thursday, November 3 as part of Paul Emery’s Nevada City LIVE! concert series.

The Heifer Bells fourth studio recording, Midnight Blue, will be available for purchase at the concert. The new record features all original songs recorded at Cedro Recording Studio in Nevada City. The band has previously release three CDs – Heifer Belles, The Way and Ranch Women’s Prayer.

The Heifer Belles began as friends getting together for casual picking and singing.  The result, a blend of back porch Americana, took them out of the living room and into the world to perform.  The group’s songs range from tongue-in-cheek to heartfelt to socially insightful.  Juliet Gobert, song writer and lead singer, plays guitar alongside bassist Toni Valenta (Belly Love) who brings harmony vocals.  Nici Van Kreidt is a highly sought-after violin teacher whose influences range from classical to Grateful Dead to Gypsy jazz.

The Heifer Belles have played some of California’s premier music festivals; Kate Wolf, Strawberry, World Fest, American River, Home Grown Americana, Cowboy Poetry festivals and more.

Juliet Gobert has performed at some of California’s premiere music festivals and venues including World Fest, Strawberry Music Festival, High Sierra Music Festival, American River Music Festival, Kate Wolf Music Festival and Kentucky Mine Music festival, Keystone Palo Alto, Grass Valley Center for the Arts, the historic Nevada Theater, the Auburn Event Center, State Theater Auburn as well as the Elko Cowboy Poetry Gathering, Heber City Western Music and Cowboy Poetry Gathering, Santa Clarita Cowboy Festival and the Davis Music Festival.

Her creative songwriting and beautiful lyrics coupled with her crisp, crystal clear voice captures audiences wherever she goes.” – Dennis Brunnenmeyer, Nevada City Limits, KVMR Radio
