An Evening with Singer-Songwriter Anna May
November 21st, 7:00pm. Alternative Tragic Americana: An Evening with Singer-Songwriter Anna May
Experience the ethereal artistry of Connecticut-born singer-songwriter Anna May in an intimate salon-style concert. Anna’s lyrical sensibility is steeped in wisdom and whimsy that explores both estrangement and connection, drawing inspiration from artists like Leonard Cohen, Neil Young, and Billie Holiday. Her tender, immersive moodscapes with a western folk flare create otherworldly sounds that blur the boundaries between folk, jazz, and contemplative Americana. This limited-seating performance promises an unforgettable evening of haunting vocals and poetic storytelling in our historic atmosphere.
Tickets: $20 | $15 Members
