Ivamae released her debut LP, Tender Meat, on June 25. When the Burlington-based singer-songwriter spoke with Seven Days at the time, she confided that she wanted to do something a little special to celebrate the album.
“I don’t want to just set up in a club and play the record,” she said of Tender Meat, an album she had worked on for four years. “Making this was such a journey for me. It feels like the occasion deserves something … more.”
True to her word, Ivamae, real name Brittany Mae, has put together an event to mark her achievement. This Sunday, August 22, the indie-soul artist is throwing a performance party at the Burlington waterfront. Presented by Waking Windows, the show takes place at Water Works Park, adjacent to the Moran Frame. Doors open at 5 p.m., and Lily Seabird opens. Tickets are $13 in advance and $15 at the door; a $30 bundle includes a ticket and a vinyl copy of Tender Meat. Advance tickets can be purchased here.
Ivamae performs her songs with a full band, including guitarist Tom Pearo and bassist Dan Bishop. Both musicians played on Tender Meat.
It promises to be a special night of music for Ivamae. She urges attendees to “bring your blankets, bring your vibes, bring a picnic. Bring your friends.”
