Grammy® nominee and four-time DIY Music Award-winning singer, songwriter, musician, producer, actress and designer Cathy Richardson returns home to play City Winery Chicago. Richardson independently released and sold more than 30,000 copies of her seven solo albums and relentlessly pummeled the Chicago club circuit for years before being cast as Janis Joplin in the Off Broadway hit Love, Janis. She then toured the U.S. with Big Brother and the Holding Co. (and still does when schedules align) and, in 2008, became the lead singer for psychedelic rock originators Jefferson Starship with founding members Paul Kantner, Marty Balin and David Freiberg.

At only 19-years-old, Maisie Bull carries an extraordinarily rich and soulful quality to her voice that is effectively unmatched by those her age. Bull's Celtic-inspired melodies pair with emotionally honest and universal lyrical themes to create the classic singer songwriter sound with a contemporary sparkle.

Dave Barnes - The Joke Concert

Friday, August 18

$25/$28/$32/$35

Grammy®- and CMA-nominaTed Nashville-based singer/songwriter Dave Barnes is in a season of both nostalgia and reality about what it means to be a traveling musician. He has released nine albums to date. His most recent,Carry On, San Vicente, was released in March 2016. The album reveals Barnes' influences from '70s California musicians including Fleetwood Mac and Jackson Browne. Country music website Sounds Like Nashville said the album "stands as a noble tribute to a sound that defined him as an artist as opposed to trying simply to cash in on the moment." An artist loved for his approachable and often hilarious nature, Barnes is actively involved in building into the Nashville community and using his experiences to help others however he can. From spearheading a monthly gathering of artists to mentoring younger musicians, he lives by the question, "What good is what you know unless you can share it with other people?" 12 years into his career which began at age 23, he's still full of limitless energy and an unrestrained expectation about the future.
