The After Party: Shelby Earl & The Passenger String Quartet
With music described as “gritty and soulful, raucous and beautiful,” Seattle indie-folk singer-songwriter Shelby Earl was named by NPR/LA Times music critic Ann Powers as her “new favorite songwriter.” In this special performance exploring the American Songbook, Earl is joined by the acclaimed Passenger String Quartet, led by Bainbridge Island’s own Andrew Joslyn.
Shelby Earl’s first two albums earned the kind of raves any musician would kill for. Upon hearing her 2011 debut, Burn the Boats, NPR’s Ann Powers called Earl her “new favorite songwriter,” and she wasn’t alone. Accolades followed from Rolling Stone to the Wall Street Journal and a million music sites in between that positioned her somewhere to the left of Neko Case, a few blocks from Sharon Van Etten, catercorner to Angel Olsen. She toured everywhere, playing with the likes of Loudon Wainwright, Rhett Miller, and Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie, who spoke for many people when he said Earl had “the most heartbreakingly beautiful voice in Seattle.”
