Jenn Grinels with Birch Pereira

Nashville based singer/songwriter Jenn Grinels will make her first Corvallis appearance on Wednesday, July 8^th beginning at 8 pm at the Troubadour Music Center (521 SW 2^nd Street in Corvallis).  Joining her will be Corvallis native Birch Pereira on upright bass.  Originally playing cello in the Corvallis Youth Symphony, he went on to major in Jazz Studies, Bass Performance at UW and plays professionally with many groups in Seattle.

This year, Grinels recently completed a 20 concert tour of Europe that took her to 7 countries and was entirely fan organized.  Jenn Grinels captivates audiences everywhere with her powerful, supremely polished vocals.  “I found myself utterly captivated…Whether Grinels was quietly purring into the microphone or seriously belting out a tune, the audience was hanging on every note and lapping up every well-crafted phrase. Grinels has the rare gift of being a well-rounded performer who engages the audience fully and openly, sharing the performer as much as the performance.  And her performance – was nothing short of amazing.”  – Kenneth Fish, San Francisco Examiner, Napa City Winery.
