Teresa Dixon, Rachael Byrnes and Susy-Lou at the Edinburgh Castle tonight, April 1st 2009

Hey folks,

I'm playing at 9:30pm tonight at the Ed Castle once again. Here's what my publicist has to say about this evening:

Checkered Shirts and Urban Skirts: a night of original music at the crossroads of urban folk, blues, country and roots. Checkered Shirts and Urban Skirts has become a regular night (first Wednesday of each month) at the Edinburgh Castle showcasing home grown artists whose music is a rich melting pot of urban folk, blues, country and roots. Wear your favourite checkered shirt or urban skirt and enjoy three amazing acoustic acts:

Teresa Dixon (8:30pm)

Teresa Dixon is a born natural, new to the scene, yet with talent like a seasoned pro. Teresa’s music is a blend of indie folk, old time blues and country. Her voice is rich, deep and full of character. She is a rare Gem not to be missed!

Often described as “Joni-Mitchel-esque” Rachael Byrnes is an emerging singer/songwriter whose music is a blend of urban folk, country, blues, jazz and world. With a superb voice, catchy songs and clever lyrics, Rachael will have you tapping your feet, singing in tune and pondering the great mysteries of life!
