ANGEL OLSEN ANNOUNCES WEST COAST TOUR IN SUPPORT OF HALF WAY HOME
Angel Olsen
has a fresh edge to her sound, a warm and wonderful range so rarely
found, and an otherworldly skill and charm. Her elegance and special
presence radiates on sophomore album, Half Way Home, and
equally in a live setting. She captivates, creating an emotional stew,
her robust voice up front, bold and engaging, aching to be heard. After
a tour of the Northeast last fall and a one-off show in LA to kick off
2013, Angel is heading back out west for an extensive tour in support
of Half Way Home.
Catch Angel and band live in intimate settings throughout the west
coast and experience why she is quickly becoming a favorite of so many.

"Ms.
Olsen understands the power of holding back, and feeding out
extravagance in small portions. People stopped buying drinks; the
bartenders put their elbows on the counter, engrossed. It was
remarkable. . . Ms. Olsen has found her sound - her voice, alone and
untreated and slow, conjoined with the specific resonance of her guitar
- and she's able to replicate a private discovery in front of a crowd.
That's a lot."
- The New York Times
"Songs on [Half Way Home]
had much in common with the passions and range of a singer like Roy
Orbison. The common thread between that powerful singer-songwriter and
hit-maker from Texas and this more delicate Midwesterner is that they
both write from the heart and sing with a range that may make you stop
what you're doing and drop your jaw a bit." - NPR Music
"On
'Half Way Home,' she waltzes through 11 gems that highlight a
minimalist guitarist with a gentle touch and a voice whose range is as
wide as it is controlled." - Los Angeles Times
