Between February and April, Vivienne Aerts will perform at Silvana & Kava Shteeble in New York City, and Lilypad in Boston

Wed, Feb 8 - Tue, Apr 25  2017

Vivienne Aerts is barely categorizable in genre or style. She plays in band formation, duo, solo, supplemented with synthesizer, loopstation and effects. she surprises, challenges and tells stories. Her lyrics travel to the core of recognition; talk to the soul and open a barrel of emotions. Heartbreaking, singing of happiness, sometimes humorous, she tells about the things that make life beautiful. Between February and April you can see her perform in SilvanaKava Shteeble in New York City, and Lilypad in Boston.
