Acousticafe Songwriter Series
ft. Vanessa Prentiss, Skylar Edson

Doors: 7:00 pm / Show: 7:00 pm
Mr. Smalls Cafe
Vanessa Prentiss is a songwriter, guitarist and bassist who leads her own band and plays in bands Posterchild and Shiva Shiva. Usually calling on surrealist and imagery based lyrics, she writes with an eye on the world around her. Photo credit: REMSLEEP.
Skylar Edson is a rising country‑pop artist from Pittsburgh, born with music in her blood and raised on classic rock, country music and the Pittsburgh Steelers. At just 15, she's already a talented multi‑instrumentalist and pop vocalist — but songwriting is where she truly comes alive, crafting stories with the emotional punch of old school country but with a sharper, more rebellious edge that's entirely her own. Now studying songwriting at the renowned Interlochen Arts Academy, Skylar is honing her craft and shaping a voice that feels both fresh and fearless. She's young, driven, and already finding her place in the next wave of country‑pop artists.
