Rolling Stone called her “one of America’s best and most ambitious singer-songwriters.” NPR called her “essentially peerless.” Her fans just say “unmissable.”

Neko Case has spent decades doing exactly what she wants. Multiple GRAMMY-nominated solo records. Founding member of beloved Canadian supergroup The New Pornographers. New York Times bestselling author. And now, the composer of the musical theatre adaptation of Thelma & Louise.

That voice—raw, expansive, and completely her own—reminds you why you fell in love with live music in the first place.

Her lyrics are literary, and her performances carry the weight of an artist who has never once played it safe.

This is a rare chance to see one of the most important voices in contemporary music up close. Don’t let it pass.

 

Opening for Neko Case is Destroyer:

Dan Bejar started Destroyer as a solo home-recording project in the early to mid-nineties. Exploring and overturning genres such as glam, MIDI, yacht rock, and even underground Spanish independent artists, Bejar was proclaimed “Rock’s Exiled King” by The Fader. His is a body of work that consistently flouts convention in favor of musical leaps of faith, statements of purpose cloaked in subterfuge, and the joyous refrain of an optimist’s heart cloaked in cynicism.

Audience: General public
