SUMMARY:Pieta Brown & The Taken
DESCRIPTION:Ticket prices on our website reflect all-in pricing for purchases made online or by phone.  This means the price you see includes the ticket price plus MUTO’s ticket processing fee. Tickets may be purchased with no included fees in person at The Ark during box office hours. \nHailed as a “self-styled poetess\, folk goddess\, and country waif” by the BBC\, Pieta Brown first came to international prominence with the release of her self-titled debut in 2002. Since then she has released multiple highly critically acclaimed albums\, EPs and singles\, with much attention being paid not only to her distinct sound and style\, but also the power of her singing and songwriting. \nAlthough the Alabama-bred\, Iowa-based Brown’s quietly riveting tunes and gritty\, charismatic performing style resist easy categorization\, they’ve helped her to win a fiercely loyal international fan base that extends to many of her fellow artists. \n“When Pieta sings you’re aware of something effortless and natural\, like rain on earth\,” Mark Knopfler observed\, while Don Was called her “a great singer-songwriter who possesses major star-power magnetism\,” and Iris DeMent described her as “the best poet I’ve heard in a long damn time.” \nBon Iver frontman Justin Vernon says Paradise Outlaw is “probably my favorite record ever made at our studio.” \nPieta has toured extensively since her first release\, and has performed at festivals in the US\, Canada and around the world\, including Bonnaroo\, Mountain Jam\, Calgary Folk Fest\, Edmonton Folk Music Festival\, Portfairy Folk Festival\, Celtic Connections\, and more. Pieta’s songs and music have been heard in various TV Shows and indie films\, and her albums Paradise Outlaw and Mercury both reached #1 on various radio charts. Pieta has also made guest appearances on National Public Radio shows including World Cafe\, KCRW\, Mountain Stage\, E-Town\, Folk Alley\, and Weekend Edition. \n“In her hands the blues hover with cloudy foreboding and old-time songs become billowy dances.” ~ Chicago Reader \nThis show is free for Ark members at the Solo ($50) level and above!
