What do you get when you put four completely different female singer songwriters in the same room? Siren Songs!Church of Boston is hosting this one time event on Thursday, February 26th at 8pm. The magical night will feature acoustic performances by Jacqueline Smith, Krysta Youngs, Natalie Live and Rachel Gambiza.
Jacqueline Smith’s endearing and intimate debut, Siren Songs, takes you on a pivotal journey in the quest to find out; ‘Where have all the good men gone?” Beautifully crafted and tightly packaged, her songs weave stories of broken hearts and tear-stained pillows. Her flowing melodies are accompanied by rhythmic beats that create a musical road map all her own. And although some may say that she’s too honest, Jacqueline doesn’t think so. “I created this album so I could stop feeling invisible to the people I could see so clearly.” Congratulations, Siren Songs does exactly that.

Krysta Youngs is a colorful, creative and complicated character, qualities all perfectly captured on her stunning debut, Stories. Youngs, fresh out of Boston via her native Detroit, is Beantown's answer to straight-shooting artists like Madonna, Pink and Katy Perry, only without all that superstar baggage. Krysta was recently a finalist on New England's very own Community Auditions Star of the Day and she's quickly making a name for herself through song placement on television shows like ESPN's Inside the Big East. Her songs—rockin', heartfelt, and literate—often pack devastating impact. Frankly, you have to see her to believe it.

Natalie Live encompasses raw tribal sounds, punchy hip hop beats, lush chords and inimitable electronic tones and she does it all herself. This crafty Seattle based songstress knows exactly what she wants and there's no doubt she's getting it. Idolizing artists like Jill Scott, Joni Mitchell and Bjork she's created an atypical style and sound that's bound to put a brand new bounce in your stilettos. With her self titled album coming out in the spring, Natalie Live is a little pop, a little more groove and whole lot of soul.
