Friday night saw Samantha Fish kick off a sold-out, two-night run of shows at ArtsQuest’s SteelStacks in Bethlehem, PA. The celebrated rock singer/guitarist performed to a socially distant crowd in Eastern Pennsylvania.

Taking place outdoors at the repurposed 120-acre development site, Fish’s roots-rock stylings blended well with the historic backdrop of the state’s steel industry. For nearly 140 years, the SteelStacks produced metal and contributed to Pennsylvania’s main export until the plant closed in 1955. Now, as the nature of the United States economy continues to change shape, what was once a painful reminder of lost jobs and income has found new life as a cultural hub for artists like Fish to perform.

The SteelStacks two-night run came as only the latest shows in Fish’s increasingly active tour itinerary. She is set to continue her journey through the Midwest with shows in Warrendale, PA (4/20); Cleveland, OH (4/21); Cincinnati, OH (4/23); and Chesterfield, MO (4/27) before wrapping up in Memphis, TN (4/28).
