UNION COUNTY'S ORIA ASPEN TO ROCK THE CROSSROADS IN GARWOOD ON SATURDAY, JUNE 16th

Union County singer-songwriter Oria Aspen will perform at The Crossroads in Garwood on Saturday, June 16th.  This is an all ages show.

This show represents something of a homecoming for Oria – in April, she rocked out to a capacity crowd at the club in her New Jersey live debut.  Last week, Oria played New York's Gramercy Theatre, where she was the opening act for James McCartney.  Backed by a full band, Oria wowed the crowd with selections from her debut album, Yellow Paint.

A deeply personal journey through everyday life, Yellow Paint is a collection of 14 songs – all but one written by 17-year-old Oria. Sometimes sassy, sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes raucous, but always passionate, Yellow Paint conveys the hopes, fears, frustrations and joys that we all experience.  Yellow Paint  not only showcases Oria’s impressive vocal ability and masterful flute skills, but also reveals her exceptional songwriting talent.  With Yellow Paint, Oria has managed not only to paint a picture of her world, but has invited us be a part of it.
