Brandy Clark Confirms Special Livestream Concert for October 1

Grammy-nominated and CMA Award-winning singer, songwriter and musician Brandy Clark will share a special livestream concert this Thursday, October 1 at 7:30pm ET/6:30pm CT from Nashville’s 3rd & Lindsley. Available to view via Clark’s Facebook, Twitch and YouTube pages, the event is free to the public with all donations made during the performance benefitting The Recording Academy‘s MusiCares.

The event continues a breakthrough year for Clark, whose new song, “Same Devil,” both featuring and produced by Brandi Carlile, debuted last week to critical acclaim. Listen/share HERE. Of the collaboration, Entertainment Weekly declares, “this haunting, acoustic ballad that conjures both dark alleys and spectral hollers as it addresses the sins and salvations that unite us, more than honors the promise of the great Brandi/y summit of 2020,” while Variety praises, “a harmonic convergence of names and voices that features the billing we might have thought possible only in fiction.”

“Same Devil” follows Clark’s critically acclaimed new album, Your Life is a Record, which is out now on Warner Records (stream/purchase here). Produced by Jay Joyce, the album consists of eleven new songs including “Bigger Boat” featuring Randy Newman, of which Music Row declares, “It’s wry, jaunty and sideways philosophical. Newman’s drawl is as personality-packed as usual, and Clark’s laid-back, winking delivery is a sheer delight. It fills my heart with joy that this woman makes music. She’s a genius. That’s all.” Watch/share the official music video here.

Recent critical acclaim for Your Life is a Record…

Created after the dissolution of a long-term relationship, the album features Clark’s most personal songwriting to date and was recorded largely as an intimate acoustic four-piece—featuring Clark, Joyce, Giles Reaves and Jedd Hughes—with subsequent Memphis strings and horns layered in with arrangements by Lester Snell.

In celebration of the release, Clark will embark on her extensive “Who You Thought I Was Tour” next year including stops at Nashville’s 3rd & Lindsley, Atlanta’s Smith’s Olde Bar, New York’s Bowery Ballroom, Boston’s Brighton Music Hall, Philadelphia’s Boot & Saddle, Denver’s Globe Hall, Seattle’s Neumos, Los Angeles’ Lodge Room and Austin’s The Parish among many others. See below for complete itinerary. Tickets for the tour can be purchased at www.brandyclarkmusic.com/tour.

Clark also recently launched a new online series, “You Can’t Come Over (But You Can Come In),” as a way to stay connected throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Premiering Wednesdays at 7:00pm ET/4:00pm PT on Clark’s YouTube page, the series has featured several special guests so far including Reba McEntire, Martina McBride, Ashley McBryde, Cam, Shane McAnally, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Tenille Townes, Lori McKenna, Maddie & Tae, Leslie Fram and more.

A six-time Grammy nominee and CMA Awards “Song of the Year” recipient, Clark is one of her generation’s most respected and celebrated songwriters and musicians. Her songs include Kacey Musgraves’ “Follow Your Arrow,” Miranda Lambert’s “Mama’s Broken Heart,” The Band Perry’s “Better Dig Two” and Hailey Whitter’s “Ten Year Town,” which was just named #2 on Rolling Stone‘s “25 Best Country and Americana Songs of 2019” round up. Her two solo albums—2013’s 12 Stories and 2016’s Big Day in a Small Town—each garnered immense critical acclaim landing on “Best of the Year” lists at New York Magazine, Billboard, NPR Music Entertainment Weekly, Rolling Stone, Stereogum, etc. NPR Music’s Ann Powers calls her, “a storyteller of the highest caliber,” while Rolling Stone‘s Will Hermes declares, “a country visionary…the consolation of a beautiful voice delivering a well-built song, cold truth rising from it like fog off dry ice.”
