Vita and the Woolf @ Cosmic Charlies
February 4, 2017 @ 9:00 pm - 11:30 pm
$8Vita and the Woolf is the sound of operatic vocals meeting neo-soul synth pop. Driven
by the anthemic voice of front woman, Jennifer Pague and supported by the dynamic
drumming of Adam Shumski, Vita and the Woolf has been melding cross-genre
influences in their powerhouse electronic style since their first EP Fang Song came out
in 2014.
The band’s head-turning live show has since grown to reflect both the range of Pague’s
vocals and the music’s shape shifting energy.
Originally inspired by the love relationship between novelists Vita Sackville-West and
Virginia Woolf, the name “Vita and the Woolf” was chosen while Pague was studying
abroad in Europe in 2012. Upon returning to the states and going through a variety of
line-up changes, the band has since solidified as a collaboration between Pague and
Shumski. In the past year this configuration of Vita and the Woolf has been featured on
the Urban Outfitters Music Blog, NYLON Magazine, and other regional and national
media outlets as the band gears up for their upcoming album release in 2017.
Stay tuned for more info about “TUNNELS”, the band’s new full length record.
Vita and the Woolf recently toured as direct support for Rasputina on a 17-date cross
country tour. In addition they have performed at XPoNential Music Festival in 2015 on
the same lineup as St. Vincent, My Morning Jacket, and Courtney Barnett. And have
opened up for Milk & Bone, Christine Perri & Colbie Caillat, Hamilton Leithauser, and
The Parlour Tricks.
