Sisters songwriter part of She's Speaking-LIVE

(Editor’s note: Edited to correct date of Tower Theater performance in Bend).

Eight women singer-songwriters and a great band comprise a dynamic and joyful concert, She's Speaking-LIVE, hitting the road in March and April to commemorate Women's History Month.

Beth Wood of Sisters is one of the singer-songwriters participating in the tour, which will stop at the Tower Theater in Bend on Sunday, March 10, 7:30 p.m.

"Women's History Month is the perfect time to shine a bright light on the underrepresentation of women across all aspects of the music industry," said artist Bre Gregg, one of the group's co-founders. "This diverse group of artists - jazz, R&B, indie, gospel, Americana, folk, blues - reminds us of the beauty and artistry of women's voices and stories with a concert that inspires and connects us, lifts us up."

Beth Wood is an award-winning songwriter and poet who has been writing, performing, and creating for over 25 years - delighting and inspiring audiences with her exceptional musicianship, intelligent writing, powerhouse voice, and warm and commanding stage presence. Beth has released 15 albums, three books of poetry, and a collection of funny stories from the road.

She works with SFF Presents to produce programming for the Sisters Folk Festival, and is the events coordinator at Paulina Springs Books.

The lineup includes Wood, Arietta Ward, Bre Gregg, Kristen Grainger, LaRhonda Steele, Liz Chibucos, Naomi LaViolette, and Lisa Mann. Backed by percussionist Ward Griffith, electric guitarist Dan Gildea, and guitarist Dan Wetzel, the 11 participating musicians pause their own touring, recording, and performing schedules to come together for these concerts during Women's History Month.
