Colleen Orender Brings Southern Blues to the Catherine Hickman Theater March 4
“Nashville Recording Artist Colleen Orender’s new music is a Southern Blues dream with Pop sensibilities and a touch of James Bond.’ NPR
Born in Tampa, Colleen Orender began her career singing with her grandfather’s country band at the age of five.
A touring blues and roots artist for decades, Orender turns your hometown venues into smoldering 1930’s Mississippi juke joints. She teamed up with Michael Davey in Nashville to produce her new sound that many are comparing to Amy Winehouse with Julie London’s essence. She recently started a residency in Las Vegas at the legendary West Gate Resort and Casino. Her song “Love Me Harder” has been a favorite on NPR stations across the country.

Media Highlights
“Run Right Back to You” could very well be an Adele b-side. There is an inescapable adult contemporary-meets-disco sparkle to the production, an apt showcase for her rich, genre-morphing vocal tone.” – American Songwriter Magazine
“COLLEEN ORENDER STUNS WITH SULTRY & BLUESY “LOVE ME HARDER”
While comparisons to Adele might be too easy, Orender instead conveys modern pop sensibilities with a bygone sultry bluesy sound that rekindles days of Muscle Shoals records and explosive horn sections. Glide is thrilled to premiere the boisterous “Love Me Harder” below which rewrites its own in the pocket vocals to a soundtrack of modern soul.” – Glide Magazine
