Tonight sees Meg Baird, better know for her work in Philadelphia's psych-folk troupe Espers, perform an intimate collection of re-worked traditional folk and homespun originals from her acclaimed debut solo album 'Dear Companion' [Drag City/Wichita]. Baird's beautiful and clear-toned vocals firmly stake a claim in the folk lineage alongside such 60s-era artists as Shirley Collins or Anne Briggs.

“[Baird’s] voice adorned only with acoustic guitar and dulcimer, brims with warmth and displays her gift for gorgeous, understated melancholy.” (The Guardian)

Support comes from David A Jaycock, Sharon Van Etten and Dean McPhee.
