Award-winning Michigan singer-songwriter Jen Sygit teams up with Northern Michigan songstress Blake Elliott for an intimate evening of stories and songs. Sygit’s soulful folk and Americana sound blends with Elliott’s retro bluesy-jazz vibe to create a beautiful evening of a dynamic collection of solo and duo tunes.
Sometimes traditional, sometimes contemporary, always imbued with raw honesty, Lansing-based Independent Music Award-winning songwriter Jen Sygit wields a rare and powerful talent that seems equally comfortable performing ethereal folk tunes, crooning sultry swing numbers or soulfully belting gritty alt-country ballads. An accomplished multi-instrumentalist who isn’t afraid to test boundaries and cross genres, Jen’s eclectic musical style draws the listener in and holds them captivated. Her poignant lyrics tinged with a delicate melancholy, reveal an oft-overlooked beauty to life’s mundane struggles while offering the occasional glimpse into the plight of a modern-day troubadour.
Hailing originally from southeast Michigan, singer-songwriter Blake Elliott has called Northern Michigan’s woods, water, and it’s music scene her home for over a decade. In that time she has crafted her personal recipe for a sweet sound: start with a little folk, throw in some jazz, add a touch of funk, swing it a bit, and finish off with a healthy dose of the blues. Coupled with her trademark vintage look and style, Elliott delivers an eclectic mix of original music that blends the present with the past. While her vocal stylings have been compared to that of Natalie Merchant and Norah Jones, Elliott’s unique voice weaves throughout melodies creating a sound entirely her own.
Don't miss the opportunity to see these two fine performers in a unique house concert setting.
