Alicia Jo Rabins: Songs + Poems

Portland-based writer and musician Alicia Jo Rabins weaves together poetry, violin, a loop pedal, and feminist Bible scholarship to create performances of unique and captivating beauty. This special evening celebrates the launch of OPEN THE GROUND, Alicia’s third album of songs about women in the Bible with her musical project Girls in Trouble, as well as her poetry book DIVINITY SCHOOL, winner of the 2015 American Poetry Review/Honickman First Book Prize. The New York Times calls Alicia’s voice “gorgeous”; the San Francisco Chronicle calls DIVINITY SCHOOL “an astonishing find: a poetry page-turner, both sexy and humble.”
