About this event
Monday November 2nd
Jackie Evans w/ Elli Rowe
***
For New York-based singer/songwriter Jackie Evans, music has always been the only option, but Evans only began releasing songs under her own name last year. Her style, often likened to the timeless writing of Carole King, Billy Joel and Sara Bareilles is, in part, the byproduct of years spent taking requests at piano bars. As a gigging musician, Evans has tried it all; from playing standards on cruise ships, to performing at theme parks and majoring in theater. The ease and confidence she carries in live performance has caught the attention of other musicians, leading to collaborations with Vulfpeck, and support slots on tour with Lake Street Dive and Jensen McRae.

Elli Rowe is a singer, songwriter and instrumentalist based in Nashville, TN. Born in Minnesota, she spent the summers hanging around bluegrass festivals while her parents took the stage. Through her parents, Elli was introduced early on to the idea of a collaborative, raw musical experience. Staying true to her Americana upbringing, Elli's songwriting tells stories of her experiences and introspections of being an early twenty-something, all while using intricate guitar work and unexpected ethereal melodies. Her songs are reminiscent of the 1970s singer- songwriters, but with a modern and relatable execution. With a feature in making it to the Top 20 of American Idol Season 20, Elli captured America’s hearts with her storytelling, receiving comments emphasizing her “angelic presence” from judge Katy Perry.Elli also has had viral moments on social media with her songs "Fentanyl & Wedding Rings" and "Same Sea", which have earned her praise from artists like Tate McRae and Kelsea Ballerini.
