"If her instruments act like sonar, expanding to fill any room and find every crevice, her voice is a single directional beam — it cuts through any chance of misunderstanding." -NPR"Never fails to make me connect to my own emotions in a way that I am continually grateful for." -Queer Review
It’s rare for an artist to bridge the divide between critical acclaim and dedicated fan engagement. CHRIS PUREKA is a Portland-based singer-songwriter whose body of work has resonated deeply with these seemingly disparate milieus. Her elegant emotionality as a vocalist and her flair as a lyricist have garnered her favorable comparisons to CHAN MARSHALL, BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN and PATTY GRIFFIN. Over many years of touring on both sides of the Atlantic, she has shared the stage with such esteemed artists as THE LUMINEERS, COWBOY JUNKIES, and ANI DIFRANCO. She has had her songs featured on such television shows as Brothers and Sisters, Covert Affairs and Shameless.
Opener MARYLEIGH ROOHAN has a style that shifts seamlessly from sunny indie pop to heartfelt Americana and a soulful stage presence. She's excited to be returning to her own music after a stint in dance-pop project JENN CHAMPION, and getting back on the road again.
Tuesday, July 19th at 7:30 pm. EARLY show! 21 & up only. $15 advance / $18 day of show.
