A livestream concert featuring Britt Connors will begin at 7 p.m. Friday, March 5, on the Blue Facebook page.
The Out of the Blue streaming series from Blue in downtown Portland is still going strong, and on Friday night, the Boston-based singer-songwriter and her band, Bourbon Renewal, carved out their own “y’all-ternative” genre with a sound that blends rock, country, roots and a New Orleans street-parade vibe.
Connors’ most recent album is last year’s “Longitude,” home to 11 tracks that bounce from pop to rock to gospel-infused Americana. Your toes will be tapping to “Beaufort Breakdown,” you’ll sway to the moody “I Told You So,” and you’ll waltz ’round your living room to the ballad “Lay My Head.”
Live Music Lineup: Three shows this weekend span several genres, from roots to British Invasion
Catch performances from Britt Connors, Claudia Acuña and Meraki.
