Songs We Love: Chastity Brown, 'Colorado'

Chastity Brown is a local favorite on The Current in the Twin Cities.

Born in Tennessee, currently living in Minneapolis, and bringing listeners on a journey to "Colorado," Chastity Brown approaches music with a troubadour's spirit, never content to rest in one place or on one style for too long. She's currently traveling through the U.S. and Europe armed with only her guitar, divine keyboardist DeVon Gray, and her ability to distill Southern blues and plaintive North Country prairie influences into expansive, alluring folk songs. Those songs have earned her fans around the globe — including Jools Holland, who recently hosted her on his Later...show. With "Colorado" as the lead single, Brown's new album is due in the spring of 2015.
