Update, April 21: Sold-Out. Thank You…Friday, April 22, 8:00 Show (7:30 door): Anna Tivel, Oregon Poet Folksinger
Of great depths and beautiful voice. Anna reaches for the thread of understanding with her music, that moment of recognition, of shared experience through her quiet stories of ordinary life. Her characters are both common and unforgettable. There are questions behind all her songs, things we all struggle with again and again, questions of identity and hurt and kindness.
Anna’s return to Tsunami will be a special night.

“Singer-songwriters are often called poets. In truth, only a few deliver the deep insight and sense of the new that breaking through the predictable achieves. Anna Tivel is one.” NPR, Ann Powers
“Tivel’s lyrics are simply devastating — these are the kinds of songs that will break you down and then build you back up. “ - No Depression
“Everything here is testament to her storytelling gifts (she’s been likened to Steinbeck and I suspect she may have a novel or short stories collection in her) with her finely drawn characters and observations of an emotional life that ranges from defiance to regret, joy to sadness.” — Folk Radio UK
