Alaskan-born Chelsea Berry is a powerhouse vocalist and performer now residing in Gouldsboro, just north of Acadia National Park. She is known for her powerful and beautiful voice, dynamic stage presence and intimate storytelling.
Berry has released 10 original albums over her 25-year career and has collaborated on projects with dozens of other writers and performers. Her music is played regularly on Sirius XM’s The Loft and has been featured on local radio and TV stations. She is currently working on her 11th album, “Peace Soldier,” funded in part by Berry’s idea of a 24-hour song marathon to support the creation of a record centered on compassion, love and empathy.
Berry has built a devoted audience throughout New England and across the country. As a veteran of the road, she has toured coast to coast in venues such as House of Blues, Carnegie Hall and the World Cafe Live, and has provided support for legendary artists including Livingston Taylor, Chris Smither, Mavis Staples, Chris Isaak, Shawn Colvin and many others.
Tickets are $20 in advance, $25 at the door and $10 for students/children, available at the church office at 1 Middle St., Gulf of Maine Books or online at ticketstripe.com/chelsea.
This UUCB Concerts for a Cause mission is to bring a variety of quality music to the Brunswick area while raising funds for local nonprofit organizations. All net profits from ticket sales are donated to the two charities chosen by the concert committee at the beginning of the season. Since its inception in 2014, the concert series has raised over $68,000 for local charities.
