Danielia Cotton Opens for Kevin Costner’s ‘Modern West’ At The Birchmere Dec. 2

Soulful, gritty roots-rocker Danielia Cotton willl open for Kevin Costner and his band  Modern West when they perform at The Birchmere December 2.

Says Cotton, “Costner is an American icon, and it’s a thrill to open for him at his first major DC show.” She will peform a 40 minute acoustic set of music from her most recent album ‘Rare Child’ (Cottontown) with her guitarist Kareem Devlin and percussionist  Alex Alexander.

Cotton earned the praise of critics nationwide with the release of  ‘Rare Child’. The NY Times hailed her “blaring, guitar-charged, Southern-rooted rock that links her to Lynyrd Skynyrd, the Black Crowes, Janis Joplin, Aerosmith and the rockier side of Bonnie Raitt” while the LA Times declared that “Cotton brings a freshness to the soul-rock formula, not to mention a contagious fervor, that is near irresistible.”
