CRITIC’S PICK: Kim Richey Trio

Recommended by Hal Horowitz as part of Creative Loafing’s May 2026 Critic’s Picks

Thurs., May 7
Kim Richey Trio
From the Earth Brewery

For a while in the late ‘90s-early ‘00s it seemed like Americana singer/songwriter Richey was going to be a big star, at least based on the quality and attention her first batch of albums generated. But, despite constant touring and plenty of critical acclaim, that hasn’t happened. It hasn’t stop Richey from recording terrific titles for scrappy indie Yep Roc who continue to release her work. The latest, Every New Beginning (2024), is another classy, melodic slice of folk/rock that should have topped the Americana charts. Her supple voice and knack for crafting quality songs is especially evident when they are stripped down to a trio format as in tonight’s show. Better yet, it’s free. Take advantage of this opportunity to see one of the country’s finest and most overlooked singer/songwriters. — Hal Horowitz
