Patty Larkin in concert on Tuesday, March 18th at the Durango Arts Center

Durango, CO – Patty Larkin, a much beloved performer in the Durango area, returns the day after St. Patrick’s day with her new album “Still Green”. Patty continues to draw sell-out crowds each time she comes to Durango, due to her spellbinding talent both on the guitar and vocally, as well as her generous spirit and fabulous sense of humor.

Bio./Background:

Patty Larkin redefines the boundaries of folk-urban pop music with her inventive guitar wizardry and uncompromising vocals and lyrics. Acoustic Guitar hails her “soundscape experiments” while Rolling Stone praises her “evocative and sonic shading.” She has been described as “riveting” (Chicago Tribune), “hypnotic” (Entertainment Weekly) and a “drop-dead brilliant” performer (Performing Songwriter ).

Patty Larkin’s new release Still Green, her 13th recording, was co-produced with Mike Denneen (Aimee Mann, Howie Day). Still Green plays out in Technicolor sound images, a kaleidoscope of sun and sea traveling from the fluorescent-lit hallways of grief to the warm pull of love, family and nature. Much of it written in a primitive dune shack on the Outer Banks of Cape Cod’s National Seashore, Still Green is a fresh approach to sound and life from a legendary songwriter who continues to amaze.

SIMPLY BREATHTAKING… “Experience is an incomparable school…with extraordinarily high tuition. And by any earthly measure, Patty Larkin earned her PhD in the months leading up to the release of her most recent insightful album. “Still Green” is a fresh approach to sound and life by the iconic singer/songwriter who is continually turning the stone over…. the new album is simply breathtaking.” – Examiner.com

INTUITIVE SONGCRAFT…”Larkin’s shows are celebrations of song, guitar and voice coming together in perfect unison with a perfect blend of skill and humility. Patty Larkin would never tell you that she’s a great guitarist, but she’ll show you all night long.” – CityBeat
