Tonight: Lissie at Mercury Lounge


High excitement around these parts to see artist to watch, Lissie for the first time tonight at the Mercury Lounge at 8. Her beguilingly-charming EP Why You Runnin' (Fat Possum) has been on consistent rotation around these parts since we got it in the mail last month. A clear highlight of the warm yet autumnal debut EP is the song "Wedding Bells", a heartbreaking lament to lost love that subtly builds behind Lissie's aching vocal delivery. As always, an artist's true test is live, but we have faith that Lissie is the real deal.
