A founding member of Canadian indie powerhouse The New Pornographers, Neko Case creates rich, mature, and deeply satisfying music that deserves and demands attention. Case’s uncanny lyrics balance hope, innocence, and darkness with a delivery that proves sad and beautiful can often walk hand in hand. Case's lusciously haunting croon and her irresistible melodies are backed by her ensemble's perfect mood soundscapes of solemn twang and groove. Crooked Fingers frontman Eric Bachmann opens the show offering his own collection of sumptuous and delicately melancholic songs.
