Live Music: Cassidy Dickens | Oxley House
2025-09-06 19:30 - 22:00 | Oxley House, 206 Davis Avenue, Elkins, WV
Join us for an unforgettable evening on Saturday, September 6th from 7:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. with Cassidy Dickens!
Raised on an eclectic blend of classic country, bluegrass, and oldies, Cassidy first fell in love with “story songs” in the back of her dad’s Chevy Lumina while driving through her hometown in southern West Virginia.
From that day on, she’s chased her passion for singing and songwriting all over the U.S., performing throughout Appalachia, the southeast, and the west coast for more than a decade. When her family moved to California during her late teenage years, Cassidy truly found her voice and developed a sound all her own—a rootsy-but-modern, east-meets-west sensibility that marries the sincerity of folk icons like Patty Griffin and Lori Mckenna with the edge of powerful female artists like Alanis Morissette and Jewel.
Bring your friends and experience live music at its finest!
