Beth Hart
Wednesday, April 15, 7:30 p.m.
Tickets $45-$65
Singer-songwriter Beth Hart is as real as it gets. In a music industry full of glossy production and airbrushed photoshoots, this is one artist who throws down her cards, shares her darkest secrets and invites you to join her for the ride. At age 47-and proud of it-Beth is basking in a golden period of time. The success of her 2016 album, "Fire On The Floor," has garnered yet more critical acclaim, growing sales and sold-out shows at iconic venues from the Ryman Auditorium to the Royal Albert Hall. Most recently, she released a brand-new studio album "War In My Mind" in September 2019 via Provogue. Produced by Rob Cavallo (Green Day, My Chemical Romance, Dave Matthews Band, Goo Goo Dolls), it sees Hart at the peak of her creative powers. New fans might know Beth as the all-conquering global icon, dubbed "extraordinary" by the New York Times and "daring, brooding and angry" by The Guardian. But to understand her rollercoaster backstory, you need only read the "War In My Mind" lyric sheet. Highs and lows alike are candidly recounted as the songwriter reaches back through the decades and tells her tale without flinching. There are memories from her '70s childhood in Los Angeles, where Beth announced her musical talent and renegade spirit, while rolling with the punches of a chaotic upbringing-about the loss of her beloved sister, Sharon; about the personal problems that derailed what should have been her major-label breakthrough in the mid-'90s; about her collaboration with blues-rock maestro Joe Bonamassa; about the redemption offered by her husband Scott, and the rebirth she found through the church. In this record, she bares her soul, wears her heart on her sleeve, and makes no apology for it.
