Sat, June 17th: 6pm - 9pm

Trapezium Brewing Company

423 3rd St, Petersburg

Deau Eyes is Ali Thibodeau: Richmond, Virginia born and raised singer, songwriter, actress, choreographer, and much more! For most of her life, Thibodeau has been part of the ensemble — dancing, speaking, and singing from a script. It has only been in recent years that she has listened to herself, to her original inner voice, and began to translate her wide range of experiences into her own music. Her debut album Let It Leave, set to release in May 2020 on EggHunt Records, was recorded in January of 2018 at Trace Horse Studios in Nashville, TN. The songs celebrate the joys and complications of a liminal life — balancing between freedom and stability, falling into and out of love, and trusting yourself through the noise of other people’s expectations.
