Singer/Songwriter Naomi Westwater Performs at the Katharine Cornell Theater

 


Free concert with award-winning singer/songwriter Naomi Westwater, 7pm Thursday August 24th

Vineyard Haven Library welcomes you back to the Katharine Cornell Theater for a free concert! Naomi Westwater (they/she) is an award-winning singer-songwriter from Massachusetts who you may have heard on NPR's Tiny Desk Concert. Their work combines folk music, poetry, and spirituality. Under the Radar Magazine describes one of Westwater's songs this way: “Feeling My Feelings’ sees Westwater once again pulling from their eclectic array of influences, from jazzy songstress legends like Ella Fitzgerald to indie folk mainstays like Wilco. The percussion skirts around the edges of the song while acrobatic guitar lines wind and enlace with Westwater’s smoky vocals.” You can see some of Westwater's videos by clicking here

Naomi  holds a Master of Music in Contemporary Performance and Production from Berklee College of Music and she is a part of The Club Passim Folk Collective. She was nominated for a 2021 and 2022 Boston Music Award for best singer-songwriter, and has been featured in Under The Radar, WBUR, Vanyaland, WGBH, Allston Pudding, and The Bluegrass Situation.

This event will be held at the historic Katharine Cornell Theater at 51 Spring Street, above the Tisbury Town Hall.
