Chastity Brown’s urgent driving tunes retain the flavor of roots music, even as they rock harder and venture further from the Americana fold. Ranging from a laid back croon to a soulful swagger, Brown, like her friend Ani DiFranco, examines tumultuous relationships, social justice and the bittersweet freedom of letting go with humor, resiliency and steely resolve. Brown makes music for and about outsiders, which at one time or another is each and every one of us.
