The Showcase Lounge at Higher Ground is the kind of room that makes this format make sense. Caitlynne Curtis plays South Burlington on Friday, June 26 as part of an acoustic run, and this is a seated show — an evening built for listening, not just attending.
About Caitlynne Curtis
Curtis is the kind of artist whose backstory makes the music land harder once you know it. Massachusetts-born, she moved to Nashville at age 12 so her family could get closer to her dream. The road had real obstacles — an X Factor rejection at 16, years of grinding it out, cover recordings posted to Instagram whenever she could carve out time — but she made it through. She earned a Billboard number-one and an RIAA gold single with “God We Need You Now,” her collaboration with Struggle Jennings, and the catalog has kept growing: singles like “Where You Left Off,” “Black Widow,” and “Amen,” and now her latest record, YOU NEED JESUS, out now on the Angels & Outlaws label.
The acoustic format puts the storytelling front and center, which is where Curtis is strongest. Her voice does not need production to fill a room — it just needs a room. Support on this date comes from Troy Millette.
The Venue
Higher Ground‘s Showcase Lounge is the intimate room on the South Burlington property — closer quarters than the main floor, and built for this kind of performance: acoustic, unhurried, nothing between the artist and the audience. It is one of the better-run rooms in the North Country, and the seated format means you are actually watching a show instead of jockeying for position.
The venue is at 1214 Williston Rd, South Burlington, VT. Doors open at 7:30 PM.
Tickets & Logistics
Show time is 8:00 PM. Tickets are available via See Tickets. This is a seated show — if you are coming with a group, plan to arrive together at doors so you can sit together.
