LAURA VEIRS + Your Heart Breaks

About

A solo show by the Oregon-based singer-songwriter, whose music portrays an epic vision of the great outdoors of the Pacific North-West. Utilising folk, punk and country influences, she has evoked comparison with Kristin Hersch and Sufjan Stevens. Her third, critically-acclaimed, album, Saltbreakers, was released on the Nonesuch label last year, with Tucker Martine (The Decemberists, Bill Frisell) from her band again producing and mixing.
'Subtle electronic beats and sea-shanty backing vocals combine with Veirs's eerie poise and imagery that evokes a salty American landscape. The world of alt-folk would be poorer without her.' ' Q
