Last May, she released her first album as a pop singer, “I Can’t Let Go.” She’s supporting that album on a tour, which comes through Salt Lake City on Tuesday, starting at 8 p.m., at Soundwell, 149 W. 200 South, Salt Lake City.

‘Bright Star’ at the Eccles
The bluegrass-fueled Broadway musical “Bright Star” will get a one-night concert performance, Friday at 7:30 p.m. at the Eccles Theater, 131 S. Main St., Salt Lake City. The show, with a score by comedian/musician Steve Martin and pop singer Edie Brickell, tells of Alice Murphy, a literary editor who meets a young soldier just returned from World War II — a meeting that awakens her longing for the child she lost. The concert features Carmen Cusack, who originated the role of Alice on Broadway, along with Casey Elliott (from the singing trio Gentri), Kenzie Davis Kremlin, Nathan Kremlin and Hannah Thompson. Tickets available via arttix.org.
