On Tuesday, June 30th at 8:00 pm at One Longfellow Square. Even when she was an eight-year-old kid in her hometown of Revere, Massachusetts, everyone called Ellen O'Brien "the singer." Kids stopped her on the street and asked her to sing. And like a thousand other kids, she sang in school plays and dreamed of some day becoming famous. But that was a long time ago. Before she went to Berklee School of Music. Before she won the Apollo Theatre competition three times in a row. Before she sang solo at Lincoln Center. Before she fronted her own band, touring the US and Canada. Before she became one of the most sought-after "event" performers in New York City. Ellen has the stage presence of a bad-ass Boston white girl cycled through a heavy dose of Chaka Kahn. She steps up to the microphone, smiles that thousand-kilowat smile and right away she owns the room. Then out comes comes that big, big, BIG voice. There's R&B in her. Gospel. FM pop and straight-down-the-line jazz. But she's more than just a pro with amazing chops. You listen to Ellen for two minutes and you know she's not just about riffs and blowing you away with technique. Ellen can do that, all right. Only, way more important, she's got true soul -- and that's the starlight that shines when Ellen sings.
