SUMMARY:Abrielle Scharff at The Music Hall Lounge
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS \n$24 Advance / $28 Day of Show\n$34 Premium \nhttps://www.themusichall.org/events/abriellescharff2509/ \nAbrielle Scharff is a twenty-something who would love for women to stop being placed in the fake genre known as “female singer-songwriter.” Unless we’re going to start calling John Mayer a “male singer-songwriter.” Then\, it’s okay. \nThe Portsmouth\, New Hampshire native cut her teeth on The Beatles and Buddy Holly while her friends were listening to Disney lullabies from their car seats. Music is in her blood. Every year around Christmastime\, she’d hear her great-grandmother\, Carol Richards\, singing “Silver Bells” with Bing Crosby in shopping centers and grocery store aisles. She wrote her first song the day her uncle (half of The Scharff Brothers along with her father) taught her three chords on the guitar. Once Abrielle made a name for herself on the east coast\, she set her sights on bigger horizons. Baby steps were never in her vocabulary. \nShe’s opened for Patty Griffin\, Ruston Kelly\, Julie Byrne\, Nadia Reid\, and Victoria Canal and has studied with major names including Susan Gibson (“Wide Open Spaces” by The Chicks) and former VP of Creative at Warner Chappell Judy Stakee. The vocal powerhouse has played venues including The Bedford (London)\, 3S Artspace (Portsmouth)\, Club Passim (Boston)\, Hard Rock Cafe (Boston)\, and New York City’s Pianos\, The West End Lounge\, Rockwood Music Hall\, Arlene’s Grocery\, The Sultan Room and Mercury Lounge. She placed in the top ten at the Brandi Carlile Cover Stories Contest in 2018 and has performed at major events such as the New York and London Coffee Festivals.  \nDespite being a seasoned performer\, the quality of Abrielle’s voice — unaffected\, clear as a bell — gives the impression of effortlessness. Paired with candid and original lyricism\, the sweetness of Abrielle’s sound doesn’t hinder her ability to convey genuine emotion. On stage\, she is an open book with a mischievous sense of humor\, like a stand-up comedian version of Stevie Nicks.  \nIn the last few years\, the award-winning songwriter has released a steady stream of singles and EPs following the release of her debut full-length studio album\, You Know the Rest. Popdust described her song “New York Makes Me Cry” as a “sensitive treatment of well-crafted songwriting.” Her newest collection of songs\, Tumbling After\, is available on all streaming platforms along with her entire discography. \n—\nSpecial thanks to our Live at The Lounge Presenting Sponsor\, Key Auto Group.
