Olivia Awbrey plays Silver Moon in Bend
Published 3:30 pm Tuesday, March 15, 2022
- Olive Awbrey will perform at Silver Moon Brewing.
Willamina is a small town of a few thousand people that sits about halfway between Salem and the Oregon Coast, tucked into thick, green forestland.
It’s also the hometown of Olivia Awbrey, a singer-songwriter with a big sound. Her excellent 2020 album “Dishonorable Harvest” is a hidden gem full of muscular rock ‘n’ roll fueled by electricity and activism. Sonically, she sounds like Courtney Barnett and classic, dynamic Pacific Northwest indie rock, and lyrically, she sings of isolation, frustration, gentrification and revolution.
