Charlottesville, VA (VR) — The Charlottesville Reading Series will host an in-person reading and musical performance on Friday, September 16, from 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM at New Dominion Bookshop (404 East Main St).
The event will feature a reading by author Sophia Glock and a musical performance by singer/songwriter Annabeth. The event will be free to attend and open to the public. The bookshop recommends arriving early for the best seating.
Sophia Glock is a cartoonist who lives and draws in Austin, Texas. She attended the College of William & Mary and the School of Visual Arts. Her work has been featured in The New Yorker, Buzzfeed, and Time Out New York. She talks to her sister every day. Passport is her debut graphic novel. For more information, visit sophiadraws.com.
Looping diverse instrumental sounds with crystalline vocals, singer/songwriter Annabeth works in a similar ethereal-folk-pop milieu as artists like Aurora and Grimes. Sometimes donning elf ears or wings, her main inspiration is nature, as well as her journey exploring outer and inner landscapes. When her debut album, extra orchard, was picked up by a French record label, she went on to tour nationally and across Europe, eventually winning the House Artist Grant and charting on iTunes’s “Top 100 Singer-Songwriter Albums.” She then founded the girl-band Larkspur, which successfully crowd-sourced their debut EP, before moving to small-town Virginia to focus on solo recording and live-streaming through the pandemic with the support of her Patreon page.
