Willa Mamet House Concert

Join us in a beautiful home for a night of beautiful music and community action.

Music, refreshments, and pot-stirring. Could anyone ask for more?

Singer and songwriter, Willa Mamet was born in a trunk and raised by performers of all kinds. Shes made music since about that time, singing irrepressibly and playing piano and guitar. With her musical partner, Paul Miller, she recorded two albums, East Hill Road and Let Somebody Love You, both of which won the VT Times Argus Tammy Album of the Year in 2013 and 2015. She hopes to release her next album in 2019. Meanwhile, she plays out sola, with Miller, and other beloveds, bringing her unique blend of rapier tongue and honey heart to audiences everywhere. Hear the voice that Patti Lupone calls, Heartbreaking. Musical. Contemporary and ancient.

Willa lives in Oakland, CA, with her beloved upright, her uncles guitar, a whole lot of elderberry bushes, and her six-pawed cat. She travels. A lot. For music.

Catch her on her SouthWest tour in February - from Oakland to Austin and back.

ABOUT NO MAS MUERTES - NO MORE DEATHS
No More Deaths is a humanitarian organization based in southern Arizona. We began in 2004 in the form of a coalition of community and faith groups, dedicated to stepping up efforts to stop the deaths of migrants in the desert and to achieving the enactment of a set of Faith-Based Principles for Immigration Reform. We later developed into an autonomous project. Since 2008 we have been an official ministry of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Tucson.

MISSION
The mission of No More Deaths is to end death and suffering in the MexicoUS borderlands through civil initiative: people of conscience working openly and in community to uphold fundamental human rights. Our work embraces the Faith-Based Principles for Immigration Reform and focuses on the following themes:

1. Direct aid that extends the right to provide humanitarian assistance
2. Witnessing and responding
3. Consciousness raising
4. Global movement building
5. Encouraging humane immigration policy
