Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
For a gal from Australia, country singer Audrey Auld sure sings with an authentic Texas twang. Check out this new song, “Last Seen in Gainesville,” from her most recent CD Music with the Dirt Left On.
Bonus mp3:
With a vocal style that faintly recalls local fave Lisa Loeb, Auld’s way with a folk/rock groove is evident in spades. Auld has sung with a virtual who’s who of Americana, including stints with Buddy Miller, Charlie Louvin, Dale Watson, Jim Lauderdale, Fred Eaglesmith and Jimmy La Fave, among others. She also has seven albums to her credit, runs her own label (Reckless Records) and has won several Australian songwriting awards.
Hopefully, her star will continue to rise in the states as most folks in these parts could certainly use an injection of Auld’s wit and wisdom. Auld opens for Kevin Welch this Friday at Uncle Calvin’s Coffee House, and will also be playing a Saturday in-store gig at Bill’s Records. --Darryl Smyers
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
