Melissa Etheridge to rock MontBleu in Lake Tahoe

Melissa Etheridge will perform Friday in the MontBleu Theatre at Lake Tahoe.

It’s hard to believe it’s been 29 years since Melissa Etheridge released her self-titled debut album. At the time, she pretty much stood alone in the music world — a raspy-voiced female rocker who wrote her own songs and was (according to the whispers throughout the entertainment world at the time) a lesbian to boot.

My, how times have changed.

Nearly three decades into this “break down barriers and keep on rocking” business, Etheridge will appear at 8 p.m. Friday, July 20, in the MontBleu Theatre at Stateline, Nevada.

Thanks in many ways to her vision, influence and, well, guts, Etheridge no longer has to stand alone on some of the things she helped pioneer all those years ago.

    Where: MontBleu Resort Casino & Spa
    When: 8 p.m. Friday, July 20

ABOUT Mike Wolcott

Mike Wolcott
Mike Wolcott is the editor of the Chico Enterprise-Record. His proudest musical moment came when he was scolded by Who bassist John Entwistle for making too much noise at a Roger Daltrey concert. He especially likes classic rock, classic old-time country, Jimmy Buffett, Bob Dylan and all three Hanks. Parsons calls him “Wally.” When he’s not slaying deadlines, you can find Wally playing guitar in a Corning-based cover band called Punches the Clown.
