KAIA FOWLER w/ Steve Tesmer
October 3, 2015 @ 8:00 pm - 10:30 pm
$5Kaia Fowler’s music is a cross-blend of folk, blues, rock and Americana. Through supple, strong vocals and guitar work that ranges from delicate finger style to rhythmic strumming, Kaia shares songs that explore life’s longings, struggles and celebrations. Rooted in nature, Kaia’s songs resonate with strength and vulnerability, seeking to bring light even when approaching some of the darkest moments in life.
This will be a CD release party for her new EP All The Way. This album is in loving memory of Kaia’s husband Scott R. Jaeger who died of pancreatic cancer at the age of 44 in July, 2013. The proceeds of sales are to benefit the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. Samples of the upcoming album are available at soundcloud.com/kaiafowler.
Performing at folk clubs, house concerts and venues that include the Froth House in Madison, Kaia shares originals and select covers that include songs by John Prine, Patty Griffin, Tracy Chapman and Susan Tedeschi. Kaia’s songwriting has been compared to Joni Mitchell’s for its lyrical metaphors, rich melodies and creative harmonies.
Kaia released her first album, Seams of My Heart in 2010. With Kaia on guitar and vocals, the album also features Randy Sabien on violin and mandolin, Paul Bast on dobro, Sam Steffke on piano, and Jeremy Reutebuch on percussion.
From the Americana Gazette album review: “Each song is very well written, with a true authenticity of life. You can picture yourself or someone you know in each story line.” He continues, “Fowler is a tremendous lyricist. Her lyrics paint pictures and her musical notes add the color…” (Aug.-Sept. 2010 issue)
Following the release of Seams of My Heart, Kaia was invited to play her song “Who Are You?” as a guest at Michelle Shocked’s concert at the High Noon Saloon in Madison, Wisconsin. Singles from the debut album received airplay on Women of Substance online radio.
Kaia will be joined by Steve Tesmer on dobro.
Please call to reserve, and come on out to hear some great music and support a worthy cause.
