BLUES on BROAD

February 3, 2012    5:00-8:00PM

Ellis-Nicholson Gallery entertainment will be provided by the homegrown Charleston talent of young singer/songwriter Irene Rose.  Her music is a soundtrack of the south as she wistfully sings about family, small towns, sweet tea, grits and God.   “I like to sing the songs that make people smile and nod because they know exactly what I’m talking about.”  Irene Rose and her sister Lydia went on a music tour to Nashville where they were invited to sing in multiple honky tonks on Broadway.   She has celebrated two album releases, “Irene Rose” and “How it Ought to Be”  available on www.IreneRoseMusic.com .  She has had airplay in Nashville, Charleston and San Francisco. In January Irene Rose was chosen to be played over 30 radio stations in South Carolina in the Discover and Uncover New Artists Series sponsored by IheartRadio.

Ellis-Nicholson welcomes two new exciting artists.

Vicki Gates, painter, resides and works in Charleston and Deb Guess, jewelry artist, lives and works in Edenton, North Carolina. Please see their artist page for more images and information. Better yet, visit the gallery.
