Her unusually low vocal range lends itself perfectly to her raw, unfiltered storytelling, where her lyrics take audiences to the darker side of love and longing. Often joined by an upright bass player, her songwriting style is complemented with traditional roots music accompaniment, delivering a punchy outlaw country sound. She’s been described as "a time traveler from the dust bowl" with a "bluesy folk" feel, having picked up folk melodies and finger-picking tricks from friends across the West. Her forthcoming debut album evokes a genre melting blend of Tom Waits and Patsy Cline, with a pinch of Ani DiFranco.<hr>Where’s Beth is the alt folk project of songwriter Sarabeth Weszely. Her songs move through ironing boards, grocery lines, drains, winter light, and quiet rooms, trusting the smallest details can hold entire emotional worlds. Voice and lyrics clear as glass, her performance carries the kind of honesty that makes a room go still.
