Egg Harbor, Wis. (August 4, 2023) – Nationally touring, Door County-based singer-songwriter Katie Dahl will play an album release concert for her new record “Seven Stones” at Woodwalk Gallery in Egg Harbor on Friday, August 18, at 7 p.m. She’ll be joined by Memphis multi-instrumentalist Eric Lewis and bassist Rich Higdon. American Songwriter says that Katie Dahl “delivers razor-sharp lyrics with a hearty, soulful voice.”
Known for writing evocative, intelligent songs with a strong sense of place, Katie Dahl is an internationally touring playwright and songwriter whose work Wisconsin Public Radio calls “the real deal.” Though she’s particularly well-known in Door County, Dahl has earned accolades across the country and beyond for the depth and power of her alto voice, the literate candor of her songs, and the easy humor of her live performances. Dahl’s appearance at Woodwalk Gallery comes amidst a summer full of shows across the United States and Europe to promote the new record.
Dahl says the songs on “Seven Stones” are about “body image, grief, queerness, and the joy of letting yourself be really seen.” The album has already garnered both critical and popular acclaim, including the #2 spot on the folk radio charts in June.
Dar Williams says, “Katie Dahl’s songs aren’t just melodies and words, they’re journeys that are firmly grounded in a sense of place—beautiful, real landscapes that help you feel places that you may have never been before. That’s the very best kind of songwriting.”
Woodwalk Gallery is located at 6746 County Road G in Egg Harbor. Tickets cost $32 and are available at www.woodwalkgallery.com. Doors open at 6 p.m., and shows begin at 7 p.m. A cash bar will sell beer and other malted beverages, sparkling water, and soda. Audience members are welcome to arrive early for bring-your-own picnics under a tent behind the barn.
