Kristen Ford and Max Hatt / Edda Glass
About This Event
Indie singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Kristen Ford has performed all over the world, often as a live looping guitarist, beatboxer, and singer. She has collaborated with Ani DiFranco and is now in her yellow era, promoting her 7th studio album, Sad Sac.
Edda Glass and her long-time collaborator Max Hatt have “forged a unique sound,” says NPR’s Larry Groce. Their alternative musical universe stretches effortlessly from award-winning original material to reinventions ranging from “Wichita Lineman” to “Girl from Ipanema” to “Falling Grace.” Edda’s unmistakable voice and evocative lyrics draw audiences into the immersive textures of Max’s guitar and compositions, creating a cinematic soundscape that resonates like folk, harmonizes like jazz, and grooves like bossa nova.
Ann Powers of NPR Music tags it “Beautiful… #chills” while Nels Cline (Blue Note, Wilco) finds it “subtly poignant, elegantly funky, and haunting without trying to be.” They have been presented by NPR, PBS, NYC’s Lincoln Center, DC’s Kennedy Center, and Wilco's Solid Sound Festival.
