After touring for the last decade as a soul band with many horns & keys blazing, this new era finds Kat Wright being born anew - more herself than ever - revealed, simply in a startlingly honest & glimmering naked light. With restrictions imposed by the pandemic, Wright & her cohorts have come to enjoy writing & touring in a stripped down formation, mostly trio or quartet, in contrast to the big band she fronted for the better part of the last decade where she was described “a young Bonnie Raitt meets Amy Winehouse”. Fans of Wright’s singing & style have been thrilled to discover this paired down line up which puts the groups true talents front & center to shine, instead of drenching them in horns and fanfare. You’ll still hear the Raitt & Winehouse influences, but now also likenesses with Brandi Carlisle & Norah Jones. The resulting music is more intentional, more distilled, more potent - a direct balm for the trying times we face today. It’s truly a scenario of “less is more” - allowing Wright’s voice to really finally take center stage, to shine and ache and yearn and howl - unburied, out in the open, beaming.

Kat has shared played with Kacey Musgraves, Grace Potter, The Wood Brothers, Lawrence, Marco Benevento, Rubblebucket, The Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Leftover Salmon, Twiddle, Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra, Voodoo Dead, Steve Kimock & Friends, Ryan Montbleau, Amy Helm, Soulive, The Motet– and more.

Tickets: $30-$38 // Members: $28-$35
