At The Back Fence in Greenwich Village
The duo BlueBird consists of Leigh Harrison and Bobby Perfect. The two met in the mid-1980s while playing gigs and jam sessions in the Greenwich Village area.
They performed around the city with the King Biscuit Blues Band, then formed a combo called Jukebox Jamboree which featured Leigh's country-styled vocals. Jukebox Jamboree played in the NY/NJ area for several years before disbanding.
Bob and Leigh remained as a duo with a large and varied repertoire. They often play at open mikes and poetry readings in the city.
