Do It. Lissie at the Fonda.

I work at a music school where the majority of the students are long-haired teenage boys who like to shred in their black metal bands. But not all of them. Take for example Lissie. This lovely young mid-western lady graduated from our Independent Artist program. And now? She's signed to Fat Possum, hangin' out with Band of Horses, singing on NPR, and generally cranking out down-home tunes that make all the fashion hippies weep with joy. Maybe some dreams in Hollywood actually do come true.

Anyway, after trapising around the country, Lissie is back in town on Saturday, opening for City and Colour at the Fonda. Show starts at 8pm. To tide you over until then:
