EVENT DESCRIPTION
jeremy messersmith
with guest Anna Graves
jeremy messersmith is an indie pop singer-songwriter and one of Minnesota’s most recognized and celebrated artists, praised by The New York Times, NPR, USA Today, Paste Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Time Magazine, Spin, and Rolling Stone among many others. A thoughtful, clever lyricist with a tender voice, the Minneapolis-based troubadour crafts songs that are catchy and relatable, and span the emotional gamut from poignancy to whimsy. jeremy is one of those rare artists who can break your heart one minute, and then put those fragile pieces back together again the next.
“…he’s a pop genius, with creative ambition to match his songs’ considerable charm” – NPR
“…a Minnesota music hero” —Star Tribune
Anna Graves is refreshed, both personally and professionally, after returning to her family’s farm in rural Southern Minnesota, outside Minneapolis. Her new music, including her single “Made to Love Someone,” features simple production that puts her vulnerable, ripped-from-her-life lyrics at the forefront. Love is the overarching theme on the album she’s working on for Island Records – not only romantic love, but also, and perhaps more importantly, self-love – and she’s not afraid to mine her own experiences for inspiration, nor to be extremely forthcoming with the details. “The best that I can do,” Graves says, “is just write something that’s completely true to me. How else are people gonna relate to something?”
Anna Graves is also an American voice actress best known for her voice-over work on multiple video games and commercials, along with her work on the animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars.
