The tour will begin May 12 in Portland , Or. and will continue across the country, ending in Denver 's Soiled Dove on June 3.
Amoeba, known for its street smart presentation of music in its San Francisco and Los Angeles stores through CDs, videos, vinyl and live performances (including a visit by Sir Paul McCartney last year), decided to take some good music on the road across America.
The choice of headliner Kate Walsh follows in the heels of her appearances on Conan O'Brien, CBS Early Show, and other national and local media outlets. Her voice has been described by Rolling Stone as 'glass clear' while People Magazine raved that the track "Your Song" was 'painfully gorgeous'.

Brandi Shearer, the vocalist with the "strong, clear and beautiful voice" (Seattle Post-intelligencer) promises a thrilling live performance. Variety described Brandi as having "more than a touch of Janis Joplin heft…Shearer always seemed ready to cut loose and start smashing furniture."
