Evanston SPACE: Madi Diaz

Madi Diaz at SPACE in Evanston, IL // Doors: 7pm | Show: 8pm // Tickets: $18 ADV, $20 Day-Of.

Nashville-based ​Madi Diaz ​marks a full restart of her artistic career with ​"Man In Me," ​her poignant debut single/video for ​ANTI-. ​It's a first taste of how Diaz has worked at perfecting the craft of delivering a full spectrum of emotions via songs stripped to their most confrontational and raw form. This song was produced by Diaz with additional production by Andrew Sarlo​ (Big Thief, Bon Iver). Across reverberating guitar strums and light piano, Diaz's voice is evocative as she makes frank observations about a past relationship: "​Do you imagine me differently // Cause when I met you swore that you saw me // When you think I might be someone else // Does it turn you on​." As the track continues, Diaz's vocals swell exponentially, only to be drawn back to a fading note.
