A national tour and live experience focused on promoting big loud love in honor of LGBTQ Pride Month featuring the music of award-winning social justice songwriter, Heather Mae and Crys Matthews.
Isis Music Hall of Asheville, NC presents Singing OUT: the first ever VIRTUAL Pride Tour!
*BECAUSE PRIDE MUST GO ON!*
Two award-winning singer-songwriters, Heather Mae (“the queer Adele”) and Crys Matthews (“the Woody Guthrie of our generation”), are joining forces once again to VIRTUALLY spread their message of social-justice, hope and love from coast to coast as The Singing OUT Tour, a celebration of LGBTQ+ Pride! During this difficult time of social distancing, it is imperative that LGBTQ+ people and our allies gather to lift one another up and bask in the power and beauty of our resilient community! We may not be able to physically gather, but that doesn’t mean we can’t celebrate our stories and our people. We don’t give up – we adapt!
Come dressed in your best Pride gear – however you identify! – and get ready to sing along, play games, compete in giveaways every night, and share connection and community in what will be a memorable VIRTUAL Pride concert! Let’s gather together in song and spirit and keep Pride alive in 2020!!
“Soul-filling” and “amazing” is the way fans described last year’s in-person tour and, with both artists celebrating new releases (Mae’s “GLIMMER” and Matthews’ “These Old Hands”), the 2020 VIRTUAL edition of The Singing OUT Tour will be a memorable and empowering gathering of community and PRIDE!
Heather Mae and Crys Matthews · 8:30pm
Award-winning singer-songwriters Heather Mae and Crys Matthews are joining forces once again to spread their message of social-justice, hope and love from coast to coast as The Singing OUT Tour, a celebration of LGBTQ+ Pride. Mae, whose evocative vocals and rhythmic piano style call to mind artists like Stevie Nicks and Sara Bareilles, creates intoxicating and unforgettable music inspired by her own personal experiences as a queer, plus-size woman living with Bipolar Disorder. Matthews, a powerful lyricist whose songs of compassionate dissent reflect her lived experience as what she, a black, lesbian, butch-identified woman, lightheartedly calls "the poster-child for intersectionality," has been called "the Woody Guthrie of our generation." Mae and Matthews will again be joined by JJ Jones (formerly of Girlyman) and her "kinetically charged" percussion. "Soul-feeding" and "amazing" is the way fans described last year's tour and, with both artists celebrating new releases (Glimmer from Heather Mae and These Old Hands from Crys Matthews), the 2020 edition of The Singing OUT Tour promises to be even more dynamic.
