Vanessa Carlton at FTC StageOne!

Singer-songwriter Vanessa Carlton plays FTC StageOne on Tuesday, December 8th.

Alongside Michelle Branch, Anna Nalick, and Sara Bareilles, Vanessa Carlton helped to usher in a new era of female singer songwriters. Her first single, “A Thousand Miles” was one of the biggest songs of 2002 and continues to get consistent airplay on radio and in TV and film. Other hits include “Ordinary Day,” “White Houses,” and her newest release “Blue Pool.”

“Her timbre is still cute and girlish, but it’s far more restrained and controlled than in the past. There are hints of mentor Stevie Nicks’s delivery style.” - Slant Magazine

Vanessa will be playing Fairfield Theatre Company StageOne in downtown Fairfield on Tuesday, December 8th at 7:45 (doors at 7:00). Tickets are available at $35 for non members, with additional discounts for FTC members, and can be purchased by calling the FTC box office at 203-259-1036 or on the FTC website.
