Lena Rich / + super secret guest
Event Details
Living is a choice, at least, that’s how Lena Rich sees it. Pensive songs and scenery for the road-weary, crumbling empires of the heartbroken and disillusioned, all propped up by an unspoken belief of the power in poetry and moving forward. The understated strength in Rich’s latest record, ‘Emerald City’, is clear, and her message resonates with quiet conviction: accept the hand we’re dealt, but never be afraid to hope for more.
Rich’s arresting LP, produced by Mike Eli LoPinto (The Montvales, Emily Nenni, Chris Stapleton) is a warm, skillfully crafted collection that points to an artist well beyond her years. Unfolding with sharp musicality, Rich draws inspiration from classic alt-country and beyond, anchored by stark observation and disarming, honeyed vocals. From Drive-By Truckers inspired over-driven guitars to Waxahatchee’s modern indie-twang, Rich maintains a unique voice while honoring her inspirations.
There is a comforting warmth to her songs and candor, inviting worried minds to take pause and reflect on connection in the face of troubled times, and how we might build something better.
