With the current popularity of Red Dead Redemption II, Godless, and Westworld, Nashville singer Lindi Ortega couldn’t be more at home. Over the past two decades, this Toronto-born songwriter has wowed international audiences with her soaring vocals and jaw-dropping skills on guitar and piano.
Earlier this year Ortega released her fifth full-length, Liberty, a Spaghetti Western-inspired record that sounds somewhere in between Ennio Morricone and Emmylou Harris. Lindi’s lyrics simultaneously embrace and challenge the Western mythos on Liberty (and again on Liberty: Parkhill Sessions), and wraps with Ortega riding off into a sunset of seductive sonics. Lindi Ortega performs tonight at The Parish, so be quick on the draw with a free download of Liberty’s midpoint, “The Comeback Kid”!
