With melodies that are often quiet but full of drama, her observant music often bears a dark and bittersweet quality as on releases like 2015’s Over and Even, the album that marked the beginning of a long collaboration with guitarist Nathan Salsburg (the two are now married). i.am.james will open the show.

The Friars, the a capella subset of the University of Michigan Men's Glee Club, will perform at the City Opera House on Saturday, January 17 at 8pm.
