Song Club is a night of community, collaboration, & craft. Anna Vogelzang curates a new imagining of this long-loved song share tradition, featuring local musicians and centering womxn, queer folks, and BIPOC. She and her 3 collaborators will perform and discuss their unique relationships to songwriting, with open dialogue throughout. The climax of the night will be the showcase of four never-before-heard songs written for that evening’s show, all on the theme of the evening. It will be a look behind the curtain for creatives, music lovers, and song nerds alike.

Anna Vogelzang believes in the power of songs. Since 2004, the Chicago-based multi-instrumentalist has independently released 7 award-winning albums and toured extensively throughout the US, opening for a wide range of acts from Gillian Welch to Sara Bareilles. Atwood Magazine says her songwriting is “beautifully visceral”, exuding “the kind of storytelling ability passed down through decades of folk tradition – it walks the line between the modern and the nostalgic”. Her voice has been described as “an ethereal, lucid thing” that “nets melodies like it’s catching monarchs”.
