Kate Pillsbury started writing songs in her bedroom in northern Michigan as a teen, with help and encouragement from a songwriting father. In college in Grand Rapids, she and her friends formed the nationally known Crane Wives, which led to ever bigger sounds and successes. But there are songs and situations that were too small or personal for the Crane Wives, and they have accumulated over the years until there is more than enough material for Kate to start playing solo, even as the band commits to its fifth album. Here at the farm, we will have the ultra-rare opportunity to hear this unparalleled writer and singer play on her own behalf: no need to sound like anyone except herself.
