Amy Black @ Soule Homestead Saturday Concerts
Americana songstress Amy Black has been taking New England by storm and this weekend she's playing in Middleborough, MA. Amy's rich vocals, high-energy, contagious melodies and top-notch band make her act one you won't want to miss. What the critics have to say about Amy Black... "...the beautifully imagined sound and soul of her originals make her a newcomer of note." - The Boston Herald "Black sings in a folk-styled country voice that suggests bits of Patty Loveless, Mary Chapin Carpenter and Judy Collins, edged by the blues of Bonnie Raitt and a hint of Jennifer Nettle’s sass." - No Depression "Lively blues, country and folk rhythms permeate Black's thoroughly enjoyable solo debut." - Maverick Magazine "From Chris Smither to Lori McKenna, New England has been home to a long line of singer/songwriters. Amy Black continues in that tradition with One Time, her second studio album." - ICON Magazine

When: Aug 11, 2012 6 PM in Middleboro, Massachusetts (Sat, 11 Aug 2012 18 )
