Songwriters bring story and song to Sisters

Colorado troubadour Gabrielle Louise joins Dan Wetzel and Kristen Grainger of True North for an evening of music at Paulina Springs Books on Friday, September 22 at 7 p.m.

"Paulina Springs Books is so excited to host Gabrielle, Dan, and Kristen," said Beth Wood, who coordinates the bookstore's events. "This will be a memorable evening of amazing songwriters you won't want to miss!"

A talented guitarist and songwriter, Gabrielle Louise's nimble and silky voice is authentic and honest, deeply rooted in traditional folk sound. More soul than sparkle, she inherited her predisposition to wanderlust and song from her parents, vagabond musicians who toured the country in an Airstream trailer, children in tow. An award-winning songwriter, she has released several albums of original songs to a growing legion of fans throughout the West and beyond. Learn more at http://www.gabriellelouisemusic.com.

In a world thirsty for authenticity and genuine connection, Kristen Grainger and Dan Wetzel, cofounders of Americana-bluegrass quartet True North, offer a wellspring of soul-stirring songs. Drawing on elements of Americana, country, and bluegrass, the sweet alchemy of their combined talents delivers songs that nestle in the ear on their way to the heart, illuminating universal truths with haunting beauty.
