Celebrate the 1st birthday of Evelyn's debut full-length album, Someday We Will Eat a Feast of Light, a year after its release in July 2024. This full band show will feature a small choir of angels singing backup. Singer-songwriter TJ Douglas will open.
Evelyn is the moniker of songwriter Dani Lencioni, a California native now living in New York's Hudson Valley. Blending indie rock, Americana, and alt-pop into inventive, soulful compositions, Evelyn's musical world is emotionally charged, introspective, and honest. Evelyn’s first full-length album, Someday We Will Eat a Feast of Light, was released July 2024. The album’s nine songs, which range from propulsive to patient, reflect an experience of modern life as abstract and occasionally devastating as it is beautiful and full of hope. The album was described as “powerful and endearing indie rock” with “stirring and emotive vocals that pack a distinct emotional crunch and sense of vivid storytelling.” The LP follows a 2018 EP, Slowly.
TJ Douglas is a New York-based singer-songwriter who has been steadily creating music for decades. Their style blends folk with indie and lo-fi elements, creating deeply personal, reflective songs that address loss, identity, humanity, and vulnerability. Douglas first gained attention with their 2015 debut album Joey, which reflected on growing up trans before that was a public category; and further solidified their presence with Our Lady Star of the Sea, Help and Protect Us, which they wrote while attending divinity school. Douglas' most recent album, Dying, reflects on the emotional and existential landscape of their work as a palliative care hospital chaplain (one without a particular religion), creating a love and grief filled exploration of life and death. Douglas' work is often noted for its raw emotionality, simple yet evocative instrumentation, and a delicate balance of hope and sorrow.
