Subject(s): Odd Girl Out, singer-songwriter, Anne E. DeChant
After two decades as a full-time musician in her native Cleveland, singer-songwriter Anne E. DeChant is taking her career to the next level: She's moving to country-music mecca Nashville, which embraced her 2006 CD, Girls and Airplanes. But the outspoken DeChant would never leave without saying goodbye to the legions of local fans who've supported her since the early '90s, when she fronted Odd Girl Out. For this weekend's send-off party, DeChant will be backed by her longtime band. Guest musicians — including Chris Allen, Alexis Antes, and Tim Longfellow, all of whom have worked with DeChant over the years — will also be on board for this bittersweet farewell.
