Pre-Order at ALR-MUSIC.com Tanya Donelly first emerged in the indie-rock landscape in the early 1980s, co-founding Throwing Muses (with stepsister Kristin Hersh), then later co-forming The Breeders, before leading her own band Belly in the 1990s. With Belly she had her biggest commercial breakthrough, notably with the single “Feed the Tree”, earning critical acclaim and a Grammy nomination. After that success, Tanya embarked on a solo career marked by lyrical richness, melodic innovation, and a shifting musical palette that embraces folk, country, ambient, and indie pop textures. Her solo debut, Lovesongs for Underdogs (1997), established her distinct songwriting voice outside of her band projects. This Hungry Life (originally released in 2006) is a live album recorded in a unique intimate setting — a closed hotel in Bellows Falls, Vermont — featuring largely new material, plus a few covers and re-imagined tracks. The album reflects maturity in both voice and subject matter: themes of home, family, identity, and the passage of time are woven through in her warm vocals and intimate performance style, with the live setting giving the songs immediacy and connection. Marking the 20th anniversary of This Hungry Life offers a chance to revisit her work at this pivotal moment: affirming her legacy in indie rock; celebrating her evolution as an artist who has never stopped refining her craft; and presenting This Hungry Life not just as a document of a live show but as a milestone in her ongoing journey — both musically and personally. “Recorded live in a disused Vermont hotel, Donelly’s vocal, full of personality, soars brightly over the audience and fills you with affection for hearth and for home.” - The Guardian - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/somerville/tanya-donelly-this-hungry-life-20th-anniversary-date-changed-from-the-19th/200030325279918 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, art, live-music, pop - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 53 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Somerville - **state**: MA - **country**: United States - **location**: The Burren - **lat**: 42.39551 - **long**: -71.12163 - **full address**: The Burren, 245 Elm St, Somerville, MA 02144-2934, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Tanya Donelly: This Hungry Life 20th Anniversary (Date changed from the 19th) - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/1e81d41b15a4328335820f24ce749855e1c6d060220e9b48538f6aeb67dfbe11-rimg-w1200-h795-dc080828-gmir?v=1788620982 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Tanya Donelly: This Hungry Life 20th Anniversary (Date changed from the 19th) being held? - **A:** Tanya Donelly: This Hungry Life 20th Anniversary (Date changed from the 19th) takes place on Sun, 20 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Sun, 20 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm at The Burren, 245 Elm St, Somerville, MA 02144-2934, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Tanya Donelly: This Hungry Life 20th Anniversary (Date changed from the 19th)? - **A:** Tanya Donelly: This Hungry Life 20th Anniversary (Date changed from the 19th) is organized by 24 Hour Concerts. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
