Pamela Machala - July 10, 2021

Live music in an intimate listening room setting by Pamela Machala (solo) in celebration of her “Something Simple” album release.

Colorado-based singer/songwriter/pianist Pamela Machala (“MOCK-uh-luh”) makes “pop music for deeper listening” (BolderBeat). With influences ranging from jazz & soul to musical theater & folk, her music sounds like a warm embrace between Sara Bareilles and Vulfpeck’s Theo Katzman, with a hint of James Taylor. Signatures of Pamela’s songs include subtly complex chord changes, feelgood funky grooves, boldly vulnerable lyrics, and a distinctive combination of melancholy and hopefulness. Colorado Daily says of her latest album Something Simple: “Built on her recognizable ability to deliver songs that come across as incredibly catchy, yet deep and heartfelt…Machala artfully turns a phrase and still manages to make us dance.” One of the songs on Something Simple, “Bleeding Me Dry,” was awarded the Grand Prize in the 2019 SongDoor International Songwriting Competition.
