Tickets for Finest Folk are pay-what-you-can, with a suggested value of $15.

Funding for the Finest Folk First Fridays series is provided by Missouri Arts Council.

About Casii Stephan

Now based in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the impassioned songstress evokes subtle vibrato notes and roller-coaster-like melodies, which immediately grab the listener, while her emotional lyrics share intimate stories. She has been compared to the likes of Florence Welch, Fiona Apple, and Carole King, as her vocal timbre possesses a full and warm quality.
