BRANDI CARLILE RETURNING TO THE FARGO THEATRE

For fans of the Grey’s Anatomy soundtrack, singer-songwriter Brandi Carlile’s stunning songs have left a permanent mark on the show’s characters through the vibrant words Carlile so radiantly sings. For audiences and critics alike, Brandi Carlile’s songs are a perfect communion between artist and listener.

Brandi Carlile makes her much anticipated return to the historic Fargo Theatre on Tuesday, August 16, at 8 p.m. Tickets are all reserved seating and cost $29.50 and $37.50 for Gold Circle. Applicable fees may apply; a $1 charitable donation is included.

Doors open at 7 p.m.; this is an all-ages performance.

Touring in support of her most recent record, Live at Benaroya Hall, Carlile and her band translate live that perfect tone and stunning beauty from Seattle’s famed hall. Carlile’s legendary riveting intensity on stage on such gems as “Turpentine, “the haunting, but rock worthy “The Story” and the emotionally-charged cover of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah,” is reason enough Rolling Stone named her one of 10 Artists to Watch.

“The Story” from her sophomore album sharing the same name, barely missed the top spot on Triple-A’s chart, while also making the US Pop 100 and Hot AC charts.

Carlile, whose influences include The Indigo Girls and Elton John, collaborated with John on “Caroline” for her third studio album, Give Up the Ghost (2009). Produced by Rick Rubin, Give Up the Ghost debuted at No. 26 on the Billboard Top 200 chart.

Carlile is also 2010’s Seattle’s City of Music Breakthrough Award winner. That same year she was nominated for a GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Music Artist.

Her songs are the fabric that binds the perfect knit between blues, country and folk music. Lucinda Williams is a two-time Grammy award winning singer songwriter whose words have struck a passionate chord among numerous fan bases. Known for her traditionalistic style, her songs capture a commercial sound.

Williams recently shared with the Austin 360 newspaper, that her current release, Blessed, is satisfying and more reflective and mature than her past collections. Writer Brian T. Atkinson called it "absolutely seamless" and "one of her finest moments" and "unparalleled elegance for an hour straight."

After releasing her first albums in the late 1970s and early 1980s, it was the 1988 self-titled album that featured one of her most famous pieces - "Passionate Kisses." In 1994 Mary Chapin Carpenter covered the song, earning Williams the Grammy for Best Country Song. Williams released Car Wheels on a Gravel Road in 1998. The album reached Gold status and earned another Grammy for Best Contemporary Folk Album.

Williams' critical acclaim has never faltered. In 2002 Time Magazine named her "America's Best Songwriter." She has been nominated time and again at the Grammy's for such categories as Best Female Country Vocal Performance, Best Rock Song for "Come On" and in 2010 Best Americana Album for Little Honey and Best Song Written for Motion Picture, TV or Other Media for "Kiss Like Your Kiss" from True Blood.
