Audra Connolly
Join us as we celebrate the release of singer/songwriter Audra Connolly's latest CD, "Slowly".

"Audra Connolly is one of the most promising young artists of today  her music is open and fresh, evoking the memory of a young Joni Mitchell. Her lyrics are uplifting and memorable and are performed in an open and honest style. This is music you will want to listen to over and over and will want to share with others." - Steve Eaton

Studying, teaching and, above all, writing and performing music took Audra Connolly all around the United States and then beyond to South Korea. Her life as an expat, an outsider looking in, lit the spark for her latest album "Slowly," released in Korea in January 2014 and to be released internationally on September 23, 2014.

Working as an English teacher, "Slowly" grew out of Audra's explorations and performances in the independent music scene in Seoul, where fans and collaborators embraced her sound.  And Korea itself is a clear secondary sound to Audra's voice on "Slowly." The Korean language, the sound of her students singing a Korean folk song, and whirring cicadas enliven the album. "Slowly" was written, produced, and recorded entirely in the Seoul area, a challenging, but rewarding experience. Audra is grateful to the musicians in the local Seoul scene for lending their motivation and support while recording "Slowly."

Audra's musical roots began in Nampa, Idaho. There she grew up studying classical music before finding her passion in songwriting, heavily influenced by folk icons Joni Mitchell and Ani DiFranco among others. After earning a degree in Music Performance from Boise State University, Audra focused on songwriting. In 2009 Audra completed "Dear Friend," her first album, on Hole Heart Records, her independent recording label.  

Audra has toured the United States promoting "Dear Friend" and has plans to continue to tour in her home country this year. However, she is by no means finished as a world traveler.
