You may know her best as Ingrid Michaelson’s guitarist-singer-sidekick, but Allie Moss is a superb singer/songwriter herself. Her new record, Passerby, is soon to be released, and I highly recommend snapping up a copy as soon as it hits stores/iTunes.
When I met Allie and Ingrid two years ago, they were still on the verge. It was before the cover of Billboard magazine, before the tours with Dave Matthews and Jason Mraz, before the appearances on The Tonight Show and Conan O’Brien, before the R.E.M. Tribute at Carnegie Hall. Though I’ve basically been begging/hounding/cajoling Allie for years to come and do a show with us, after they hit it big, I figured I missed my chance. So you can imagine how thrilled I am about this show. Though I officially retired from hosting house concerts after last November’s farewell show with Glen Phillips, I’m making an exception for Allie. That’s how freakin’ awesome she is.
(Note: I will be booking house concerts on behalf of friends who are hosting, though, so keep an eye on the events calendar for their shows as well – i.e. April 8 with Molly Venter at Heidi’s House.)
Don’t miss this rare chance to catch an intimate living room performance before she becomes too famous to do this again. To attend the show, RSVP to me at drew.pearce@yahoo.com or 415.706.3800. Seating is limited and though this is a rare Tuesday night show, it will “sell out” quickly.
