  • In the tradition of the best bluesy folk-rock singers who preceded her (think Janis Joplin or Melissa Etheridge, but with less bluster than either), Carlile sings with restrained power and from-the-gut force. Here, she and her band perform three tremendously assured songs from Bear Creek.
    Set List:
    "Raise Hell"
    "That Wasn't Me"
    "A Promise To Keep"

      What does "proper recognition" mean? People who are fans have known her for a long time. Awards aren't always "proper recognition". Many artists win awards and disappear. Not Brandi

She has a bit of a country sounds in some of her things, but I love folk and I think she is closer to that in most of her music.

    As far as I can tell this is completely acoustic. No mix. Just them performing into the one mic in the middle, which is absolutely staggering.
