Shelby Earl House Concert

Seattle-based songstress Shelby Earl has been on the Roots Hoot House Concerts short list since her 2011 album Burn the Boats. Well, patience pays off and we are pleased to welcome her for a very special evening on Saturday, September 26. Doors are at 7 pm and show time at 7:30. Don't miss out! This is a BYOB/potluck show which means terrific food to go with an evening of great music. Sounds like win-win to us.

A little about Shelby Earl:

With music described as "gritty and soulful, raucous and beautiful," Seattle singer-songwriter Shelby Earl was named by NPR/LA Times music critic Ann Powers as her "new favorite songwriter" (see below for full letter), and her solo debut album, Burn the Boats (produced by John Roderick of the Long Winters, out on Local 638 Records) was named the "#1 Outstanding 2011 Album You Might Have Missed" by Amazon.com. She has since garnered praise from the likes of Rolling Stone, Paste Magazine, NPR, KEXP, No Depression, American Songwriter and many more. Earl's sophomore album Swift Arrows (produced by Damien Jurado), was released in late-2013 to further critical acclaim, and in the words of Benjamin Gibbard (Death Cab For Cutie/Postal Service) it "proves [Shelby] has the most heartbreakingly beautiful voice in Seattle."
