Pop-Up Performance from Beth Bombara at Thrasher Opera House on November 21

Green Lake, Wis. (November 14, 2024) – Thrasher Opera House in Green Lake, Wisconsin
will host a Pop-Up Performance featuring Beth Bombara on Thursday, November 21.

Cocktail & Appetizer Hour: 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm
Performance from Beth Bombara: 6:30 pm
506 Session – Cocktail style seating
Beth Bombara’s It All Goes Up is for this moment what Kathleen Edwards’ Back To Me was
for the early 2000s. It’s all there – the songwriting first and foremost with a voice that
connects on a raw, emotional level alongside production led by Bombara’s undeniable
musicality, retaining the intimacy of being wholly conceived by the artist
herself. Bombara’s last album, Evergreen, was well-received by fans and media alike. “The
likes of Aimee Mann and Jewel are fair comparisons,” noted the L.A. Weekly, “every tone is
tinged with emotion, nothing is wasted.” With It All Goes Up, Bombara has risen to a new
level and let some light in. “There’s more light, more hope in this record,” she says, “and it
feels more positive sonically, as well.” These songs were written during the chaos of the
past couple years, and the time found Bombara looking for silver linings, writing to keep
herself positive and keep her mind open and fresh. She continues, “During the pandemic I
reconnected with an old guitar that had been collecting dust in my closet for many years.
It’s a classical guitar, and I wrote a lot of the songs for this record on it, which brought
something different to them and took the tone of the record in a new direction.” Bombara’s
songwriting certainly did take a turn – upwards, in more ways than one.
