The Oakland based folk band, Ghost Town Jenny will be supporting a couple of great out-of-town acts at the Swedish American Music Hall in San Francisco on June 17th. Ghost Town Jenny (led by singer/songwriter, Kym Kylland) is one of the rare local acts you can confidently and definitively call, "folk". Kylland’s music is super pretty, simplistic and a joy to listen to.
Smoke Screen is a soulful electro pop duo that’s going to create a nice crescendo as they’ll follow GTJ on the bill. They’ve got a flashy Hollywood pop style, but their sound embodies more of Los Angeles’ local music scene than a homogenized Hollywood version of a style they originally crafted. They’re talented, polished and will be cool to experience live as well.
Brooklyn’s Tor Miller sounds kind of like the Billy Joel of 2025….or Elton John if he grew up in Williamsburg in 1997. That’s pretty cool. Miller’s piano based ballads are haunting but still pop oriented. It’s possible that he’s going to put on a thorough and emotive show that’s going to make you remember his performance for a long time. Don’t miss this line up at Swedish American Music Hall on June 17th!
