Erin Rae 7/9/18 Cafe 9

While driving to this show, the title track from Gillian Welch's "Time The Revelator" appeared on my playlist. Nashville singer songwriter Rae reminded me of a cross between Gillian and Emmylou Harris. Great, confident voice on this set of all original tunes. The band was hipster Nashville with organ, drums, bass, guitar/vocals, and Rae on guitar and lead vocals. She said she played this venue in 2015 with her "friend" Spoken Nerd. Songs unfolded with a folk country feel before Rae's stellar vocals kicked in. The guitar player was great too, he had a penchant for vibrato or tremolo, his whole body shook with each note he played to give the distinctive quaver. Anyone who is a fan of Welch or Harris should check out Erin Rae.
