Every Wednesday at 7pm ET since March of 2020 ilyAIMY has gone Live from the Lair. Sometimes we’re chatty, sometimes we’re just here to play. Sometimes it’s the whole band, and sometimes we have guests, and one time it was just rob. You never know what you’re going to get – but chime in on the chat and let us know you’re there. Cause we’re just doing what we do from a Basement in Baltimore.
Tonight we’re joined for the first time by Anna p.s. : Indie folk musician Anna p.s. conveys a sense of weariness throughout her simple yet resonant songs, but it’s a weariness that keeps a blanket of hope tucked up under its chin, even as the rain keeps falling outside the windows. In concert, Anna plays acoustic guitar, foot percussion, and—perhaps unexpectedly—the flute – and grace always lurks around the corner on tunes that layer delicate vulnerability over the hearty stock of this songwriters’ spirit. With technical acumen acquired during an early career as an audio engineer, and a humble but confident stage presence groomed as a founding member of indie roots rock band Shiny Shiny Black, Anna stepped out as a solo musician in 2014. She’s been on the road intermittently ever since. Her debut LP Umbrella, released in July 2016, showcases her signature sonic blend of melancholy, hope, and resilience.
