SLOFolks Presents: Jackie Bristow

Saturday October 15th @ 6:00pm – 9:00pm

The lure of the road has always been a defin­ing moti­va­tion for singer-song­writer Jack­ie Bris­tow.
She took her first musi­cal steps in Gore, on the South Island of New Zealand, honed her craft in the pubs and clubs of Syd­ney, Aus­tralia, and found her voice in the Unit­ed States, where she has con­tin­ued to enhance her rep­u­ta­tion as a soul­ful, seduc­tive inde­pen­dent record­ing artist and dynam­ic live performer.

Like Joni Mitchell, Shawn Colvin, and Bon­nie Raitt, Jack­ie has cre­at­ed a body of work that will endure, fine­ly shad­ed songs that are at once per­son­al and uni­ver­sal, record­ing with her long-time musi­cal part­ner, Aus­tralian-born gui­tarist and pro­duc­er Mark Punch.

Amer­i­can Song­writer has hailed Jack­ie as ​“craft­ing some of the most beau­ti­ful, com­pelling Amer­i­cana today”.
