The Music of Bonnie Raitt
Presented by Katie Matzell & Friends
Tickets starting at $25
Katie Matzell & Friends are thrilled to debut their tribute to the legendary Bonnie Raitt at the Firehouse Arts Center! You can expect all the hits, deep cuts, ballads, and blues that span Raitt’s illustrious, decades-long career, performed by Katie’s Portland, Maine-based nine-piece band, including a horn section!
Katie Matzell is a singer, songwriter, and performer from Portland, Maine who released her debut EP in 2018, followed by a series of singles and live recordings. MaineToday called her “fierce and dazzling”. “[Matzell’s vocals are] sweet, full and gorgeous” with a “richness to them that make the songs burst all the more.” The Deli Magazine said “Matzell’s voice, both effortless and simple, floats above a sea of washy keys and pocket grooves, calling comparisons to not only her influences of the past (Bonnie Raitt and Aretha Franklin), but to her contemporaries — Norah Jones and Emily King immediately come to mind.” Matzell was nominated by the New England Music Awards in 2018 for Female Performer of the Year. She continues to write new music for release in the near future.
