That’s Smarts
Erin McKeown is best known as a prolific and progressive songwriter who is unafraid to poke and prod the boundaries of folk and pop — we’re especially partial to her 2011 record F*ck That! Erin McKeown’s Anti-Holiday Album. The Brown grad is as passionate about social activism as she is about music. She’s a member of the Future of Music Coalition, was a fellow at Harvard’s Berkman Center for Internet and Society and recently was a blogger and host at WNYC Public Radio. And, much like her music, her take on hot-button cultural issues is smart, engaging and wryly insightful. McKeown plays Signal Kitchen in Burlington on Thursday, March 19, with local indie-folk songwriter Rachael Ries.
