Americana singer, and Washington native, Brandi Carlile celebrated her birthday a little early this year after taking home three Grammy awards – best American roots performance and best American roots song for “The Joke” and best Americana album for her sixth album “By the Way, I Forgive You” – in February.
To celebrate her actual birthday on Saturday, Carlile is headlining her first show at the Gorge Amphitheatre, a show she’s calling Echoes Through the Canyon, which also features Emmylou Harris and Neko Case.
Fans who’d like to help Carlile celebrate can choose the Brandi’s Birthday BBQ upgrade ($300, doesn’t include a ticket to the show. A portion of the proceeds benefit the Looking Out Foundation.) and will have exclusive access to Carlile’s soundcheck, sing “Happy Birthday” to Carlile and enjoy a slice of cake, barbecue and drinks.
They will also receive a limited edition poster, signed by Carlile, a goodie bag, early entrance to the venue and the help of an on-site host.
