Description

“A work of brooding soul eloquence, alt-rock wiriness, atmospheric pop sweetening, and folk-infected naturalness.” - NPR Music "Classy Country-Soul with a hefty dash of the Blues to send a shiver down your spine." - NO DEPRESSION As the daughter of a blues musician, Chastity Brown was born with an innate ability to channel wrenching circumstances into beautiful, uplifting songs. But after surviving the isolation of the early pandemic and a global racial reckoning that was set off mere blocks from her South Minneapolis home, even she was surprised to hear the way her latest album was taking shape. “It’s a love album, in a way I didn’t plan on,” Chastity says. The songs on Sing to the Walls blossom around the ears like a lush garden of flowers, with Chastity’s expressive voice and expansive melodies supported by intertwining, twinkling tendrils of atmospheric sounds. Even the titles hint at the album’s sense of optimistic yearning, from the dreamy opening track “Wonderment” to her ode to healing a broken heart post-breakup, “Curiosity,” to the pulsing promise of “Hope.” “I want to poke at what the blues is,” Chastity reflects. “It has a lot of stereotypes like it’s mostly only played by blue-eyed white guys now. But what about Bessie Smith, and Ma Rainey? I feel so closely connected, in a pure, undeviating lineage, to the heritage of being a Black, queer blueswoman. I want to share this music with them, and say that I’ve listened, and I’ve done something new.” DOORS: 6PM   SHOWTIME: 7PM RULES OF THE ROAD: The 443 has a $15 per person/seat required minimum purchase for our shows, which can be any combination of food and drink.
