The Singing OUT Tour with Crys Matthews and Heather Mae @ Havurah Synagogue
Jun 29 @ 7:30 pm – 10:00 pm

The Singing OUT Tour 2019 with Heather Mae and Cry Matthews

June 29, 2019 at the Havurah Synagogue, Ashland, OR

 

On Saturday, June 29 at 7:30 PM especially for Pride Month, the Havurah Synagogue presents Heather Mae and Crys Matthews in concert. Ask any one about the new generation of social justice music-makers and they’ll mention either Heather Mae or Crys Matthews. Mae, a powerhouse performer and earthshaking vocalist, has turned her personal struggle with mental health and body image into an empowering message of self-love, a universal light force that shines for every audience member. Matthews is a powerful lyricist whose songs of compassionate dissent reflect her lived experience as what she lightheartedly calls “the poster-child for intersectionality.” These two singer-songwriters have joined forces with JJ Jones (Girlyman) and Joe Stevens (Coyote Grace) for The Singing OUT Tour. With Jones’s “kinetically charged” percussion and Stevens’s multi-instrumentalist brilliance, the music will be as powerful as their collective message — stand up and sing out. Matthews writes, “If you’re LGBTQ, if you’re a parent of an LGBTQ child, if you are just a fierce ally, if you just like good music and good humans you NEED to experience this show.”

 

Tickets are $18 in advance, $20 at the door, and are available at the Music Coop, 268 E. Main St., Ashland or online https://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/4104248

Call 541-488-7716 for more info. The Havurah Synagogue is located at 185 N. Mountain Ave., Ashland.
