About this event
“There’s a rare elegance and subtle drama to her lyrics. The melodies sway and soar, haunting in one moment, majestic in the next...Every track is a gem. Pasqual is very special artist, exploring love, loss and life in profoundly moving ways. To know her music is to love it. Far more people should get to know it." -Paul Freeman, Pop Culture Classics
Perhaps best known for her work in the Bay Area "super-group" Blame Sally, of whom rock critic Joel Selvin wrote: “...one of the most powerful word-of-mouth success stories I’ve heard in recent years”, Monica Pasqual has managed to maintain an impressive solo career both before and during the Blame Sally years. Already the winner of six Independent Music Awards and six Emmy Awards, her latest album, "You Can't Kill Light", took home three more IMA's.
In 2017 Pasqual’s political song and video of the same name garnered her radio play and views across the US and was performed live by Pasqual at the 2018 and 2019 Bay Area Women's March as well as throughout Germany where she toured in the spring of 2017.
Her songs have been used on numerous network television shows and she has composed soundtracks for PBS, The History Channel and National Geographic TV. Pasqual's "Bird in Hand" was named the 3rd most popular song of the year by Folk Radio DJ Chart. You can watch Pasqual's other band, Blame Sally, light up the stage in an hour-long special on PBS's nationally distributed program "Music Gone Public" on PBS.org.
In late 2019 Pasqual released her album "You Can't Kill Light" and was set to tour the album in 2020 when COVID hit and she moved to Salt Lake City to be closer to her mother.
This will be her first concert in two years.
