Storm Large will perform June 21 at the NightCat in Easton.
Fresh off a European tour singing with Pink Martini, Storm Large comes to Night Cat in downtown Easton Thursday, June 21. After a sold out tour this past January in celebration of the release of Storm’s memoir, Crazy Enough,Storm returns to the States for what promises to be another stellar run of concerts.
In January of 2012, Storm released her memoir, Crazy Enough (Simon and Schuster’s Free Press) to rave reviews. Named “Book of the Week” by Oprah.com and awarded 4 out of 4 stars in People Magazine, Rosie O’Donnell herself cheered, “I loved your book!”
As Large explains it, Crazy Enough is, “a story about losing your mind and finding yourself. A love song to the lonely, left out and messed up kid in all of us.”
A performer of Wikipedian proportions , Storm Large has been singing and slinging inappropriate banter at audiences around the globe for more than 15 years . Seven years ago she moved to Portland and quickly went from wild club act to legendary cult status . In 2006 she was tapped to be on CBS’ Rockstar: Supernova . This three month stint on television gained her worldwide fame and in late 2006, her single, Ladylike, debuted at #5 on the hot singles chart in Billboard Magazine , and the number 1 seller on CDBaby . For the next 2 years she hit the road. Touring all around the US , Canada, New Zealand , Iceland and Singapore . In 2007 , tired of touring and missing Portland , Storm took a chance and accepted the role of Sally Bowles in PCS’ production of Cabaret. The production turned out to be a huge hit and Storm fell in love with the theater .
Crazy Enough is the first theater piece Storm has ever written and , by far , the scariest thing she’s ever done . However , as a great artist once said , ” The thing that scares you the most , is the very thing you should do . ” It is a wild ride through the early life of a girl who was supposed to lose her mind and instead found that crazy works for her . The sound track follows the ups and downs of the story sequentially going from introspective meditations on sanity to pounding anthems of declaration . It was co-written by James Beaton of the Balls , there are also a couple of nods to Michael Cavaseno from Storm Inc. with a cover of ” Where Is My Mind” permitted by Francis Black of the Pixies .
