Sound Series: An Evening with Joan Shelley

Co-presented with Calliope: The Pittsburgh Folk Music Society

The Warhol welcomes back Louisville, Kentucky-based singer/songwriter Joan Shelley. She returns to the museum’s intimate theater with collaborator Nathan Salsburg supporting her latest release, a self-titled album on No Quarter Records. The new record, produced by Jeff Tweedy of Wilco, takes a different approach than her acclaimed last release Over and Even, which NPR’s Bob Boilen declared “one of the most beautiful records of the year.” The new record still reflects the influence of American and British folk revivalists Sandy Denny and Vashti Bunyan, though Shelley also channels Michael Hurley-inspired melodies.

Doors open at 7 p.m.
