By: BWW News Desk Aug. 22, 2017
L.A.-based singer/songwriter Annette Conlon is set to embark on her second Compassionette Tour of the South-East beginning September 1, 2017, spreading the word of her musical activism at many stops along the way.
Conlon will be performing songs from her critically-acclaimed debut solo album, Life, Death, and the Spaces Between, along with songs from her new album scheduled for release in 2018. "Part sweet, part dark, the songs show a view deep into Annette Conlon's soul. Her songs about compassion, social consciousness, human interaction, and animals are intended to make people think and to make a social statement." (Ed Simon, The Boise Beat) Says Conlon, "I am excited to share my love for animals and veganism, through music, with folks across the country and to show them how easy it is to live more compassionately, from what you eat, to what you wear, while helping folks make the connection that our animal friends are not food." This musical activism helps raise awareness of animal cruelty and factory farming and her tour helps elevate this awareness with sponsors in fashion and food.About Annette Conlon
The influences of Johnny Cash, Emmylou Harris and Dolly Parton can be discerned in her Conlon's debut, and Country Music People ranked Life, Death, and the Spaces Between #3 on a 'Best Albums of 2015' list, praising Annette Conlon as "a major talent" who "created a moving, intimate, magical melodic country trip." Currently working with three-time Grammy winner Alf Rodenas on her second album, Conlon promises a "sweeter, happier, Ameri-Folk/Rock" effort that "delves ever deeper into my human heart."
