BEWDLEY music fans are invited to a night of Americana featuring an accomplished singer from San Diego.

The Eve Selis Band will perform their brand of alternative county music at St George's Hall on Friday, July 5, as part of the Music in the Hall series.

Award-winning singer Eve Selis, will delight audiences with her emotional and powerful music, which describes the tragedy and happiness within her life.

From her personal tragedies of husband Tom’s brain cancer diagnosis, her brother Dan’s Stage 4 colon cancer diagnosis and the tragic death of her brother Pete, Eve has also created Healing Hearts, a unique musical event to help others dealing with their grief.

Eve says: “I’ve been a singer as long as I can remember. It’s really all I know. But my love of singing has become even more meaningful to me over the years as I experience the two-way, healing power of music.

"I feel it every time I support a cause that is important to me or see someone in the audience experience the comfort of a lyric or the joy of a guitar solo.

"But the connection we share transcends even the songs themselves.

"More and more I’m learning that hardship, grief and tragedy make music not just an occupation or a diversion- but a necessity. Sharing music is as essential as food and water to me.”

The night will also feature a set from a Youth Act and a local artist.

Tickets for the concert cost £12 online via www.thehall-bewdley.org.uk or in Hall Café.

Doors for the event open at 7.30pm
