Annie Mack with carisa

Annie Mack

Doors 6:30PM / Show 7:30PM

$12ADV / $15DOS

This is a seated show.

Lauded by artists like Taj Mahal, visionary blues and roots artist Annie Mack branches out on her new EP Testify, mixing folk, rock and country gospel into her unique soulful sound. Digging deep, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment as she takes the reins as songwriter and producer. Although only 5 tracks, this power-packed release features Mack at her finest, singing her truth with strength, conviction and unflinching honesty. Confirming her status as "Minnesota's heir to the Mavis Staples throne" (Star Tribune), Testify is indeed the album we need right now - honest, soul-filled songs to lift our spirits and spring us into action so we can make ourselves and the world a little more loving.

carisa's music is best categorized as bedroom cafe. It hints at some of her influences, primarily bossa nova, folk, and jazz. Her lyrics are often straight from the pages of her journal and are always autobiographical in some way. She primarily performs music with her guitar but has also been seen caressing a keyboard.
