CALEY CONWAY SLINGS A TELECASTER AND A NEW SET OF RULES FOR THE SINGER/SONGWRITER PARADIGM; ROOTED IN FOLK BUT HARDLY BOUND TO IT, HER INVENTIVE STYLE RANGES FROM JAZZ TO POST-ROCK, HINTS AT THE FAMILIAR AND EMBRACES A DISSONANT BEAUTY. THE MILWAUKEE NATIVE’S BREEZY VOICE AND DISARMING WIT BELIE A DEEP COMPLEXITY THAT HAS EARNED HER PRAISE AS “THE NEXT BIG THING IN FOLK MUSIC” BY NO DEPRESSION MAGAZINE. EQUALLY ENTHRALLING AS A SOLO PERFORMER OR A FULL BAND WITH BACKUP SINGERS, CONWAY LEAVES ROOMS HUSHED, HER AUDIENCES SOMEWHERE BETWEEN CHILLED AND CHUCKLING. HER NEW EP, SURROUNDED MIDDLE, IS OUT ON APRIL 18TH. TUNE INTO WMSE’S LOCAL/LIVE TUESDAY, APRIL 16TH, TO HEAR CALEY CONWAY’S LATEST MUSIC FROM HER FORTHCOMING ALBUM BEFORE HER OFFICIAL RELEASE SHOW LATER THAT WEEK AT ANODYNE ON BRUCE. SHE WILL HAVE A FULL BAND IN TOW, INCLUDING LOCALS MIKE NOYCE, D’AMATO AND DEVIN DROBKA. WMSE.ORG TO STREAM LIVE OR IN THE ARCHIVES OR SIMPLY TUNE YOUR RADIO TO 91.7 FM AT THE 6 O’CLOCK HOUR.
