Singer/songwriter, Dani Carroll, will perform at the Copeland Cultural Arts Center, ArtBar, at 7 p.m. on June 5.
Carroll has successfully established herself as a country music artist by writing and performing in Nashville since 2002. A 2006 solo album, titled "Unbreakable," was praised for its "sensitivity, hummable melodies, ... , and meaningful delivery." Her original music is influenced by a variety of folk, rock and jazz greats, and she has a characteristically rich, "bluesy" voice certain to reverberate in every corner of ArtBar.
