Alicia Witt brings her new album, Between Heaven and Earth, to Beachland Tavern for an album release performance. Made live in New York with producer Joe Henry and a handpicked ensemble, the record captures vocals and instruments together with minimal overdubs to preserve an immediate, lasting spark. Its songs explore longing, fate, healing, surrender, nostalgia, gratitude, and connection through a gently optimistic lens. Witt’s enduring bond with David Lynch, rooted in her earliest screen work, helped shape the album’s meditations on love that endures beyond circumstance. Listeners can expect pieces that let go of old lessons, celebrate instant kinship, and imagine the lives we choose to build. Other tracks consider alternate timelines and the calm that follows accepting when a connection is not meant to last. “Thank You,” featuring John Paul White, transforms heartbreak into appreciation for what it cleared the way for, while “Love Anyway” centers on giving without expectation. A bonus track, “The Director,” serves as a personal dialogue with Lynch, captured spontaneously in a single uninterrupted take during a quiet studio moment. Known for acclaimed work across film, television, and theater, Witt is also a classically trained pianist and lifelong songwriter, with previous releases including Revisionary History, The Conduit, and I Think I’m Spending Christmas With You. This performance honors the next chapter in that ongoing musical journey.
