Ticket price DOES NOT include food and drink.The phrase, “Ava, you are a lot,” has been a familiar refrain in the life of Alaska singer-songwriter Ava Earl. Uttered with loving amusement by her parents, mild frustration by more than one teacher, and joyful admiration by a few key mentors, this notion of “being a lot” is at the heart of her latest studio album, fittingly titled, Too Much. Earl is currently a Graduate Student at Northwestern University, located just outside of Chicago, where she’s channeling her near boundless energy into a packed schedule of academics, athletics, and of course, music. Her studies include political science, critical theory, and creative writing.Having opened for the likes of Maggie Rogers while still in high school and releasing four albums by the time she was 18, Earl has already solidified herself in the Americana scene as an emerging artist. She made a big step up in 2021 with her album The Roses, produced by GRAMMY-nominated JT Nero. Well received by Americana UK, Holler, and American Songwriter, several songs were featured on Spotify editorial playlists, with “Mountain Song” amassing more than 100,000 streams. Too Much continues on this path. Produced by JUNO-winner Zachariah Hickman and recorded at Great North Sound Society in Maine, the album champions a new sound––one that breaks away from previous recordings while staying close to Earl’s unique writing style. Rooted in lyrical rock, there are tracks that evoke the pop sounds of Olivia Rodrigo, Taylor Swift, and Gracie Abrams, while others hint at Americana artists Phoebe Bridgers, Elliott Smith, and Laura Marling. Thematically, the album takes us through Earl’s journey of early adulthood, including the concept of being “too much.” “Women are often told or made to feel like we are too much,” Earl says. “We are too much for our surroundings, too much for our peers, too much for our own good. We are supposed to wait our turn, couch our ideas in questions, and just be small. That’s never worked out for me. From a young age, I have been labeled ‘too much’ and I know from experience, I couldn’t be less if I tried. This album works through those feelings of being too much—both for others and sometimes for myself.” The title track, “Too Much,” tackles this duality head-on. Written in the aftermath of COVID shutdowns and her experience of sudden and permanent single-sided deafness, the deceivingly upbeat tune confronts her hearing loss anxieties, which are purely internal, as well as her romantic insecurities, which are far more external. In “Ears Bleed” the concept of “too much” turns wholly inward. “After going deaf in my right ear, I was left with emotions that took months to unravel, sort, and explain. Six months in, I thought I had come to a semblance of peace when this song tumbled out of me, surprising me with a pain that was still so palpable,” she says. Songs about being too much for others tend to have more bite. That’s certainly the case with “Better Than,” and “The Things You Said,” where Earl works through old feelings of being too eager and too earnest, labels that she says used to make her feel embarrassed, but today she wears them with pride. “I am too much, and I don’t think that will change,” she states. “But I do hope that this album can show other women and girls like me that being too much is actually a wonderful thing.” - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/chicago/ava-earl/100001998655185462 - **Event Categories**: fitness, Art, Music, Sports, Workshops, science-fair - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Age Limit: all_ages - door_time: 2026-09-05T00:30:00Z - Duration: 2 hours - Location: UncommonGround - Lakeview - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 17.85, max: 17.85, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Chicago - **state**: IL - **country**: United States - **location**: UncommonGround - Lakeview - **lat**: 41.95119099999999 - **long**: -87.65986 - **full address**: UncommonGround - Lakeview, 3800 North Clark Street, Chicago, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Ava Earl - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/816d4f932c15e4a9414fa0289c434b87ea33bd5b49b497a3d1b5f679bd43d6eb-rimg-w1200-h899-dc685848-gmir.jpg?v=1787696187 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Ava Earl being held? - **A:** Ava Earl takes place on Fri, 04 Sep, 2026 at 08:00 pm to Fri, 04 Sep, 2026 at 10:00 pm at UncommonGround - Lakeview, 3800 North Clark Street, Chicago, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Ava Earl? - **A:** Ava Earl is organized by Uncommon Ground. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
