The intimate venue, which has served as an important launching ground for such artists as Ingrid Michaelson and Sara Bareilles, will provide the perfect backdrop for an introduction to Willis’ soulful, thought-provoking music.

In the little more than three years since she grabbed her acoustic guitar and took the stage for the first time, Daphne Willis has grown from a feisty neophyte into a self-assured, marvelously expressive artist with a bracingly seductive sound. The 22-year-old’s Vanguard debut album, What to Say (due for release Feb. 9th) documents Willis’ voyage of self-discovery, while also standing as a captivating introduction to a remarkably fresh voice with a distinctive point of view—one that both reflects and scrutinizes the social patterns of her generation.
