Melissa Ferrick in Concert
· Second Friday Concerts at First Church Belmont · Belmont
Live music
Melissa Ferrick’s impact cannot be overstated. As one of the few openly queer artists in the 1990s, she navigated and challenged the sexism, homophobia, and rigid gender expectations of the music industry. Her trailblazing journey not only paved the way for future generations of artists but also created a space where they could express their identities and be celebrated on their own terms. 30 years into a prolific career as a genre and gender-defying songwriter, Melissa continues to disrupt normative categorization. With disarming wit and raw vulnerability, every lyric in her immense catalog is an invitation to confession or catharsis. Melissa has shared the stage with countless acts, some of which include Bob Dylan, Joan Armatrading, Weezer, Tegan and Sara, Mark Cohen, Paul Westerberg, John Hiatt, Ani DiFranco, k.d. Lang, Suzanne Vega, and Shawn Colvin. Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime concert. Admission is $35.
