About this Event

With eight albums in twenty six years, Freakwater couldn’t be described as prolific, but their tendency to only say something when its worth saying is what has made them one of the most highly regarded contemporary American bands. Their first release in a decade, Scheherazade, has earned universal critical praise. Highlighting the sisterly harmonies of Catherine Irwin and Janet Beveridge Bean and songs that reflect a sepia tinted alternative and sinister vision of America, Freakwater fully deserve their legendary reputation. With UK tours are as rare as their records, this is more of an event than a show. “Longtime fans who have patiently waited for this resurgence will be thrilled with results.” American Songwriter, “Haunting songs rooted in old-time country, Southern Gothic and humming electric ambience.” Uncut.
