CHASTITY BROWN

(Opens for Andrea Gibson.) Minnesota-based artist Chastity Brown’s debut album Silhouette of Sirens came out on Red House Records last May. Blending elements of folk, gospel and soul into an easy flowing mix that has her music drawing attention in numerous circles, Brown admits that being a biracial, queer woman in Trump’s America is a political statement in itself and she’s not afraid to speak her mind loudly. Headlining the show is Boulder, Colo.-based poet and activist Andrea Gibson, whose latest album is titled Hey Galaxy and latest book is Take Me With You.

When: April 16, 8 p.m.

Where: St. James Hall, 3214 W. 10th Ave.
