Pieta Brown with Bo Ramsey
KHOI has announced a concert with headliner Pieta Brown on Friday, May 2 at 7 p.m. to raise funds for KHOI Community Radio.
Hailed as a “self-styled poetess, folk goddess, and country waif” by the BBC, Pieta Brown first came to international prominence with the release of her self-titled debut in 2002. Since then she has released multiple highly critically acclaimed albums, EPs and singles, with much attention being paid not only to her distinct sound and style, but also the power of her singing and songwriting.
Playing the opening set and sharing the stage with Brown for a few songs will be Bo Ramsey. Bo is known for mesmerizing songs with deep messages. Ramsey is a Grammy-Award Winning Guitar Player, 2 Time Grammy Nominated Producer, Iowa Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, and Iowa Blues Hall of Famer.
