Emily Saliers and Amy Ray have created a string of elegantly layered, acoustic guitar-driven folk-rock albums on their own terms, and “remaining a little island of consistency in an aggressively unpredictable industry,” as Billboard magazine put it.

The songwriting takes center stage on the latest release, "Poseidon And The Bitter Bug". The duo barreled through the recording process in three weeks flat in Atlanta with longtime bassist Clare Kenny, session-pro drummer Matt Chamberlain, engineer David Boucher, and veteran producer, arranger, and keyboardist Mitchell Froom, all of whom they've worked with before. “There wasn't time for lot of belaboring over decision-making so it was very much an in-the-moment recording, which I found exhilarating,” Saliers says.

Constant touring, as well as an unwavering commitment to social, political, and environmental issues cemented the Girls’ bond with their audience, who clearly recognize two artists willing to walk the walk.

The performance starts at 1pm and will be followed by an autograph signing.
