Tuesday July 4th’s Soundcheck Summer Music Series Lineup:
Ali McGuirk
Ali McGuirk delivers a sublime set of songs that pair her trademark soul sounds with roots turns and raw rock ‘n roll detours. Growing up just outside Boston, McGuirk doesn’t remember a time when she didn’t want to be a singer. By college, after a couple decades of absorbing ’90s r&b,’70s singer-songwriters and classic soul of every era, McGuirk found her own aesthetic: earthy, pure, propelled by a voice capable of whispering dark truths or belting out big hooks on her originals.
Batdorf & the Brother Wolf
Brother Wolf is Michael Batdorf’s answer to his deep love for Jimi Hendrix and is a Blues-Rock Power-Quartet that plays through the inner Mountain West.
Missy Jo
Born and raised in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Melissa Elliott is a singer, songwriter, teacher and music director performing under the alias Missy Jo whose musical explorations seek to thin the barriers between R&B, Western, and Jazz. Her songs explore cunning observations on the human experience – life, love, romance in the midst of apocalypse, her affinity for thrift shopping. Between her lyrical vulnerability, genre blending, and soulful voice, Missy Jo’s music welcomes listeners into her world.
