 TUESDAY, MAR 06, 2012 8PMWPRB Welcomes: Jennifer O'Connor
The phrase "female singer-songwriter" has been tarnished by hordes of over-emoting waifs making premature compact discs and MySpace pages and weaving their interchangeable voices and boring music into their sad tales. That is far too limiting a term for what Jennifer does. If she were singing under a band name instead of her own, people would understand that she darts around from soft, poignant ballads to urgent folk pop and taut trad rock. Jennifer has a singular voice that at the same time sounds like Everygirl. It draws you into her world, makes you feel like you know her, you can relate to her. She may only be a young thing, but she's had way more than her share of hard knocks, and you can feel that in every note that comes swooping out of her head. Tim Foljahn (Two Dollar Guitar, Half Japanese, Boredoms, Cat Power) $10 [BUY TICKETS] 21+
