Best Contemporary Pop This Fall

in Kalamazoo

Andy Grammer at State Theatre

Andy Grammer

Multi-platinum singer songwriter Andy Grammer is redefining what it means to be a pop star on his own terms. The Honey I'm Good performer was discovered after his busking on the streets of his hometown Los Angeles drew large crowds. After signing with S-Curve Records, his debut album reached the top of the Billboard Chart in 2011.

Patty Griffin at State Theatre

Patty Griffin

The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter is the sweetheart of Americana music! Her first studio album, Living With Ghosts, was released in 1996 and received critical acclaim (it featuring only Griffin and her acoustic guitar). Her music style is particularly revered for its stripped-down songwriting, and is mainly centered around folk music. Many of her work has been covered by musicians including Emmylou Harris, Ellis Paul, Rory Block, and the Dixie Chicks, and constantly receives praise from her peers including Willie Nelson.
