Beth Orton

Saturday, July 5, 2008, 9:00 pm
Courtyard C or Hunter Center
$ 22 in advance/$26 day of show
Member tickets are not available via the internet.

This maverick UK singer-songwriter practically reinvented folk music on her groundbreaking 1996 debut Trailer Park, blending acoustic arrangements with trip hop beats to create a wholly new sound. More than a decade on, her style remains as unclassifiable as ever, and her voice, one of the most instantly recognizable in all of popular music, has developed from a formidable instrument into an unforgettable combination of raw emotion and effortless cool. She's comes to North Adams joined by just her guitarist for an intimate acoustic evening. Make a day and night of it: galleries open until 7 PM with special reduced admission for ticket buyers

“It's an intimate and breathy performance that can be genuinely spine-tingling or downright seductive." - Clash

Come early: Lickety Split serves dinner, snacks, and ice cream before and during the show or visit Café Latino on the MASS MoCA campus. There are also many great restaurants in North Adams that are within walking distance of the campus.
