Crystal City Duo | Jenny Parrott at The Black Angel
July 27, 2024 @ 9:00 pm – 11:30 pm
Free
Crystal City is fronted by Sam Drella and Dave Helmer, a Midwestern singer/songwriter with blue-collar roots. Influenced by Paul Westerberg, Tom Petty, John Prine, and Townes Van Zandt, Helmer’s songs are relatable, with themes of love and loss, being good to each other, and celebrating life.
Jenny Parrott is a Austin, TX based songwriter whose new album “Love Spell” is teeming with the soulful influences of Sharon Jones, Amy Winehouse and Sam Cooke; the avant-folk sensibilities of Bjork and Nina Nastasia; and the melancholic vocal harmonies a la The Shangri-Las and Grouper. In it, Parrott tackles coming out, queer history, mental health and spirituality while incorporating the stunning sound of the Omnichord — a charming musical gift from her husband — where they can.
