Softspoken

What a performer wears can be almost as important as lyrics and melody. Angie always chooses her performance clothes carefully, thinking about the venue and what mood she wants to set. As she's talked about before, dressing for a coffee shop gig is completely different from dressing for a gig at a dive bar. Packing for tour is especially tricky, because you have limited space, but still want to look and feel your best on stage.

Recently, Angie was fortunate to partner with Rachael of the Etsy shop softspoken, who sent over a package of some really wonderful handmade pieces for Angie to wear on tour. The tops are so beautifully crafted and soft, and fit Angie's style perfectly. She chose this gorgeous fringed crochet top for her second show of the tour, Black Eyed Susan Acoustic Cafe in Angelica, New York.

Since Black Eyed Susan veers more toward fine dining (the food is absolutely amazing, by the way) Angie chose to layer the crocheted top over a black tank dress instead of wearing it with her usual short shorts. Still a bit bohemian, but also a sophisticated choice.

Check out the softspoken shop as well as Rachael's blog for more of her incredible clothing and accessories.
