Anousheh Khalili

Anousheh Khalili commands the listener with  songwriting that bears the authenticity of old  country tunes with a pop sensibility that makes them  memorable.  Her sound is piano-laden and lead by strong and  lucid vocals, and has been compared to the likes of  Neko Case, Fiona Apple, and a more vocally robust Cat Power.  

Her first album, “Let the Ground Know Who’s Standing  on Him”, was released in November 2004 on Triple  Stamp Records. The album is a handful of intimate,  bare-bones songs peppered with delicate  instrumentation and lilting vocal harmonies. 

Anousheh  is currently living in Richmond VA, and  working on her second album with Triple Stamp  Records. After several years as a solo artist, she now performs with her band, Allen  Bergendahl (bass and engineer) and Michael  Satterfield (drums). Both join her on stage this evening. The trio recently recorded an episode of MHz Spotlight for MHz Networks which airs in the DC metro area in August.
