Kathleen Edwards and The Last Town Chorus

Sings Like Hells Series

When: Saturday, May 17, 2008, 8 p.m.

Where: Lobero Theatre, 33 E. Canon Perdido St., Santa Barbara

Cost: $42.50

Age limit: Not available

Categories: Singer/songwriter

Description: Kathleen Edwards does not write like a girl. Her songs are set against a shimmering backdrop of sonic washes and melodic guitar-driven rock, with a no-nonsense approach to lyrical delivery that makes the stark topics almost brutal. Mental illness, the Iraq war, isolation and confusion, crack, murder and racism: the combinations are mesmerizing and memorable.
The Last Town Chorus is a revolving ensemble led by singer/writer/lap-steel-guitarist Megan Hickey, whose singular approach to music has beguiled music writers and fans alike. Her live shows are nothing short of revelatory, bringing audience members to tears, turning skeptics into fanatics and building a loyal fan base in every city The Last town Chorus visits.
