Michelle Shocked
We're going to see Michelle Shocked Tuesday evening at Hugh's Room. I'll post a review Wednesday. I have a lot of respect and admiration for Michelle Shocked. It's been quite a number of years since I saw her play in Vancouver with Candy Minx and the Underground Baker, and I'm really looking forward to it, especially at such a fantastic venue.

She did an excellent cover of Wichta Lineman with the Texas Tornadoes. (Wichita Lineman is he bestsongever writen)
I bet you are going to have a fabulous time.
I hope the Hugh's Room venue gets rid of all those pesky tables so you can dance!!!!
haha, I was just thinking about how much I like that venue because of the tables, and in my mind I was comparing it to seeing Nick Lowe a while back, at a bar where everybody had to stand up.
Supurb!! Have a ball mate
I haven't heard the name Michelle Shocked is, like, a decade. Is she making new music?
Yes, ZF, she has a new CD out. She's still makin jam.
Oh I like the option to sit down too...but not as much as I like dancing!
If I heard her and did not see her I would swear she had to be black - great blues voice....again, thanks for the introduction to another musician! I loved this video - her voice! Anyway, you guys have a wonderful time!
hey Gardenia, if you like the way Michelle Shocked sounds, a really good place to start is with Short Sharp Shocked and also with Arkansas Traveler. Both are brilliant, delightful and full of surprises too.
Although I figured she was, I am glad that you confirmed that Michelle Shocked is still making music. I remember when she was getting some airplay on MTV with the video for "On the Greener Side". From what I recall, the video spoofed Robert Palmer's videos (with male models in place of the female ones).
