Lily's Pad

Welcome to Lily's Pad! A listening and sharing space for musicians, artists, and their pals! Lily's pad is a substance/smoke free environment.

Located in a private residence at 1999 North Avenue in Burlington, VT; Lily's Pad is a DIY listening and sharing space for musicians, spoken word performers, and other artists, (and their pals!). We exist to encourage and support the growth of our amazing community of artists regardless of talent and experience levels, and we are a safe and welcoming space for female, q***r, and gender non-conform

ing artists. Lily's pad features a twice monthly house party that serves as a song circle/jam/open-mic night called The Ribbit Review! Artists are encouraged to bring original songs, covers, poetry, or any other sonically oriented art they'd like to perform. We also welcome non-performers to just come, hang out, enjoy the space, have some tea and treats, and connect with and just be in community. We apologize to folks who need mobility assistance, but due to existing structure of the house, the basement and certain rooms are not wheel chair accessible.

Hey froggos! No Lily's Pad tonight, but we have some good news! The house issue has been resolved and we'll be resuming our normal schedule starting the 17th of this month! Hurray.

We're can't wait to reconnect with all of you again.

Please pass the word!

Hey everyone. I'm going to need to cancel the pad tomorrow night. There's been a snafu with the insurance on the house, and until it's resolved I just need to be safe as the estate is going into probate. This could be for the next few months depending on how things go. I'm so sorry.

If anyone would like to host in the meantime, let me know. Maybe we could all just get together and jam at someone's house, or backyard in the interim. I might also reach out to odd fellows, to see if we can meet there maybe once in awhile.

Once it's resolved, the pad will return. No worries. Thanks for your understanding everybody. Stay in touch with each other! ❤️❤️❤️

Hey froggos! Lily's Pad is on for tomorrow night! Wednesday 4/1; 7-10pm! Let's get together, nourish our hearts, bodies, and minds, and make some sonic art to honor beautiful Rory and her belief in connection through music.

See you then!

Thank you Becca Hammond for sharing this audio clip. You're amazing! 🥰

Hi everyone.

With great sorrow I wanted to let you all know that Rory made her journey back to Consciousness this morning down at her family house in Weybridge. She was at peace and we're grateful that her hospice process was a quick one.

Words can't accurately describe my feelings right now, but I'm glad my partner is free of the anxieties and worries that she struggled with in life. There's a hole in my heart right now, but I'm joyous that she's at peace.

She was the best human I ever knew. Kind and generous to a fault. She always put others before herself, and always tried to find ways to help. And I've never experienced a love as deeply and honestly and unconditionally as she loved me. I hope that in the end she felt the same.

She loved you all too, especially her family, and her music community. She never expected to have the amazing group of friends and feel the connectedness that she did in these late years of her life. But she was so grateful for it. Every single one of you, and every single minute minute. Thank you all for being part of her journey.

If you'd like to come honor her with music and poetry, I'm still going to hold Lily's pad this Wednesday. She wouldn't have it any other way. I'm also going to plan a life celebration later on in the spring when the weather turns warmer, and things are in bloom. That was her favorite time of year.

My beautiful Rorykins, I'll miss you so so much tho I know we are forever connected in Consciousness. Someday we'll see each other again. Enjoy your new adventures wherever they lead you. I love you to the 12th fret and beyond.
