Since her first release more than 25 years ago, singer/songwriter Ferron has been writing inward-facing, confessional songs revered for the poetry of their lyrics; her influence on the music of folk-inflected female performers, from Ani DiFranco to kindred spirit Bitch, would be difficult to overestimate. An unplanned communion onstage at a festival sparked a friendship that led to Bitch producing Ferron's Boulder, this show's raison d'être. Stop by to hear firsthand one of Canada's most enduring and relatively unknown indie legends. – Peter Stepek
