An Evening with Michelle Malone

The Cary Theater 122 E. Chatham St., Cary

Compared to most musical artists in the Americana genre, Michelle Malone seems like a pair of distressed blue jeans amidst a sea of pantsuits. Unlike the surplus of self-professed rootsy rebels, one listen to this woman from Dixie and you know you’re hearing the real thing. A singer, songwriter, and guitarist whose music is informed by blues, roadhouse rock & roll and Georgia soul, Michelle Malone’s performances can go from contemplative and coffeehouse quiet to rowdy and “Twin reverb on 10” loud at the turn of a dime. Her passionate, uncompromising style has won her loyal following worldwide, but most especially in the American South.
