Singer-songwriter Amy Andrews performs at DePauw March 19

Baltimore native Amy Andrews will be visiting DePauw University to offer a song-writing workshop on Tuesday, March 18.

Singer-songwriter Amy Andrews -- whose sound has been described as "the perfect marriage of Alison Krauss purity and Patty Griffin soul" -- will visit DePauw University next week to present a concert as part of the Performing Arts Series.

The free event, which is open to all, is scheduled for Wednesday, March 19 in the student social space at the Inn at DePauw.

The program will begin at 7:30 with an opening performance by the Bootleg String Ensemble, comprised of students from the DePauw School of Music.

A cash bar will be available for patrons age 21 and older.

Andrews will also offer a songwriting workshop, which is also free and open to the public, at 4 p.m. Tuesday, March 18 in Kerr Theatre, located in DPU's Green Center for the Performing Arts.

A Baltimore native, Andrews was trained in musical theater and classical performance before deciding she wanted to write original music. She is based in Georgia and regularly tours to perform her largely folk-inspired work.
