Since the roads have been plowed and the subway and buses are running, Laura Cantrell (with guitar wiz Mark Spencer) will be playing at the 11th Street Bar in the East Village tonight.
Laura was born and raised in Nashville, but came to New York City for college and never left. She’s not only a singer and songwriter but a musicologist as well, serving as the proprietress as The Radio Thrift Shop on WFMU. Rolling Stone has called Laura “A modern woman with an old-timey heart, with a voice pitched somewhere between the bluesy realism of Lucinda Williams and the vintage femininity of Kitty Wells.” The details of this show can be found at Now I’ve Heard Everything by clicking here.
If you were not among the capacity crowd who saw Martha Wainwright at The Rockwood Music Hall this past Monday, there are some pictures from that show awaiting you here at Now I’ve Heard Everything.
