Taub's folk-funk opera, The Daughters, was developed last summer at Mark Brokaw's Yale Institute of Music Theater, featured in the 2010 NAMT Songwriter's Showcase, workshopped at CAP21 Theater Company and was a 2011 Richard Rodgers Awards finalist. The performer recently received a Macdowell Fellowship and commission to write a musical for the Oregon Shakespeare Festival.

The New York-based singer-songwriter's EP, entitled "What Otters Do," is described as an electic six-song collection, which features the songs "Make A Mess," "Wet Shoes Waltz," "The Tale of Bear and Otter," "Lost Mornings," "Ease" and "The Bridge." The EP will be available Aug. 29 for digital download as well as on Taub's website, www.shainataub.com.

Rockwood Music Hall is located at 196 Allen Street in Manhattan.
