Bard was born on a stormy night. Son to an ape and a firey redhead, he was destined to be great. But he didn’t know his true power until a wise monk walked by as he was desperatly tryed yo play the guitar. "Let the power within you take hold my son, for you are actualy.............Irish." It was in this moment that Bard felt the spirits of U2 and Van Morrison coursing through his veins!!! He raised his axe, and with one soulful blow, changed the world forever!!!!!
"Im listening to all of these songs over and over again, and each and every one of them make me smile and giggle. The lyrics are so laid back, with meaning, cute and slightly clumsy in a very creative way. I adore it all."
-A very smart person.
I’d like to give you a good recommendation somehow if I can. I had 60 year-old guys and my daughter’s high school friends and everybody in between all saying "this band is great!"

"Bard and the Bardettes just kinda happened." Nate had been in every High School band Bard had joined, and Bryn would later be a natural choice being Bard’s little sister. "At first we were called "The Bards" then we played a four day festival in Manitou, and decided to use a different name every day for gimmick sake. The plan was that the first day we’d be ’The Bards’, the second day we’d be ’Bard and the Bardettes’, third, ’Bard and the Trailer Trash’, and fourth, we’d be ’Bard and the Minstrels Three Minus One’." It was a joke we became known for at the festivals.
After a while, the other bands (Total Ripoff, Tuesday Night Sorrow, The Music Ex Band) faded away leaving The Bards as the only functioning project on Bard and Nate’s plates. "I guess we just realized at some point that our little acoustic jam project was playing more successful gigs than any of our "real" bands. So we ran with it." And ran they did. Touring up to 70 dates a year totaling at least 30 miles from Bard’s house, The Bards began to shine, somewhere along the line switching to the name Bard and the Bardettes. "Nate dug the idea of being a Bardette, so we changed it." Leaving name ideas like Nate and the Naterinies in the past Bard and the Bardettes geared up to conquer the world.
are you excited for addy to move?i wasnt for keifer but i guess yesterday he went to go visit and refused to back to the 2s and stayed with sharen the hole day! i think addy will do fine because she is very sassy so the bigger kids wont pick on her:)she moves monday? you gonna be able to help her out? did you ever start on them online survey things i told you about? i hope you did, i just another check, this was for $237 from 2 weeks ago. if you didn't yet, pshhh, get on it; i guess you'll have to type the link into internet explorer or whatever, but here it is again:
I have decided that we need to cover "Gangsta's Paradise" by Coolio. I will provide awesome hardcore gangsta vocals, and you can do an awesome gangsta acoustic backing...Slightly out of character for us? Maybe. Super fast gain of ridiculous street cred? I think so.
So um...When are you going to New York, and do you maybe want to get a place together if it's not all summer? Because..I might be back in Estes this summer and I'd need a room mate since I don't really want to impose Cherri and mom and dad.
