It seemed that each time Tristan Prettyman (singer-songwriter from San Diego) came to town, I always had something going on. I’ve been a fan since 2005, when she released her first CD, Twentythree, and I still hadn’t seen her perform live. This time, for her headlining show last Sunday night at The Triple Door, I made sure that I was free. It was no surprise to me that the show had sold out. She lived up to my expectations, as her live performance was endearing, strong, and full of beautiful sound. Storytelling about life, love and tacos, she spoke openly about her past relationships, and about how and why she wrote the songs for her latest CD, Cedar + Gold. She signed memorabilia after the show for those fans who were willing to wait, and hugged and thanked each and every one of them. She is genuine, sweet, and a truly gifted musician. She, along with her bandmates, Steve Miller and Josh Dunahoo, will continue to tour through the middle of March.
