Every handful of years, Neko Case resurfaces with a new album and reminds listeners that she is one of our greatest living songwriters — perpetually becoming more fearless and adventurous. “She has cultivated one of the most distinctive voices in American song,” Stereogum declared. “Her albums unravel like musical picaresque: restlessly digressive, bluntly funny, strange — but never in ways you’d anticipate.”
Kick off ICSF week with a meal from one of Iowa City's best restaurants and a show from one of her generation's best songwriters. The Dinner & A Show Package includes a pre-show dinner at St. Burch Tavern, downstairs at The Den*, starting at 5:45 pm, followed by the show at The Englert at 7:30 pm. Due to a generous partnership with St. Burch, all proceeds from the dinner will go towards the Iowa City Songwriters Festival scholarship program, which invites 20 songwriters from Iowa and around the world to dive deep and hone their craft without financial barriers.
