Venue: The Arc
7.30pm
Audience favourite Nell Bryden is back with a new and deeply personal album: “I Love You So Much I’m Blind.” Putting a raw spin on her American blues and soul roots, Nell’s latest tour-de-force shows off her gorgeously rich and emotional voice. A New York songwriter who bravely shares her vulnerabilities, it feels like she is singing just for you. After years of struggling with heartbreak and infertility, Nell leads us through her journey of acceptance and redemption. “I Love You So Much I’m Blind” may be her most emotionally powerful record to date.
