Lauren Calve Opening For Rhett Miller At City Winery November 19

Singer / songwriter Lauren Calve will be joining Rhett Miller November 19 at City Winery in Montgomery, NY.  She'll be playing songs off her acclaimed debut album Shift released September 1 - listen HERE.  Miller says, “Lauren Calve is an old soul with a voice to match. It’s been terrific to watch her evolution. I can’t wait to see what’s next.” She was also a guest on his podcast earlier this year - listen HERE.

Shift was recorded in Nashville at 3Sirens Music Group with producer, engineer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Dex Green (Margo Price, Aaron Lee Tasjan, Allison Russell) along with a stellar line-up of musical talent including Fred Eltringham on drums (ACM Drummer of the Year, Drumeo Country Drummer of the Year, Sheryl Crow, Willie Nelson), Audley Freed on guitar (Sheryl Crow, The Black Crowes), Robert Kearns on bass (Sheryl Crow, Lynyrd Skynyrd), Marlon Patton on drums (Larkin Poe, Lera Lynn), Jared Reynolds on bass (Ben Folds) and engineer Joe Costa (Ben Folds).

The sound reflects the environment in which the songs were written, in quarantine, mainly, and therefore in periods of silence and self-reflection. Through the ten-track collection of songs on Shift, she invites the listener to come along on her journey of self-discovery and change, demonstrating a musical masterclass in the art of emotional storytelling.

The title-track “Shift” was released on May 26. The Bluegrass Situation featured Calve and premiered the music video - Read + Watch HERE.

The track was added to many Spotify playlists including in CMT’s The Roundup HERE. She was recently in Nashville and performed both songs on Today in Nashville (WSMV-TV NBC) watch “Shift” and “Everything At The Same Time.” She also performed on WMOT Roots Radio for their Finally Friday live noon show at 3rd and Lindsley - listen at 30-minute mark HERE. Calve released her third single “Subtle Alchemy” on August 18 (listen HERE) along with a special stripped-down “Home Planetarium Version” video for her song - Watch HERE (directed by Elena Lacayo).

Calve is building off the momentum she’s gained with her album and from touring with the likes of Ray Wylie Hubbard, who says “Lauren tears off pieces of her soul, rhymes them and shares them with a voice that is righteously cool,” as well as Rhett Miller, Tom Paxton, Justin Townes Earle, and Amythyst Kiah, to name a few. Calve was also recently on the prestigious Mountain Stage hosted by Kathy Mattea who says "Lauren is an amazing singer and a clear, confident performer. Her songs range from tender ballads to edgy rock and blues, and she utilizes those vocal chops to bring the full range of them to life.”
