Do we need to enumerate the ways Iris DeMent is so marvellous? She possesses a voice which is never forgotten once you hear it, akin to that of Stevie Nicks, Dolly Parton or Lucinda Williams.
“Is Beaverton considered part of Portland?” Iris DeMent asked the crowd midway through her sold-out concert at The Reser. A few shouted “yes,” some answered “no” and one or two confirmed that Beaverton is “the suburbs.” Many didn’t say anything at all.
Iris DeMent holds a special place in my heart. Growing up in the suburbs of Akron, Ohio, every night I listened to WKSU, the local public radio station, originating at Kent State.
