Performing a combination of stripped-down American Pinup favorites and original songs not found in her band's discography, West will be winding it down from anthemic powerpop to heartfelt indie folk.

Pizza Vitale's “little silver box” on wheels holds a wood burning pizza oven owned and operated by an experienced pizzaiolo showcasing house-made dough, Sarno valley tomatoes, fresh mozz & locally sourced toppings.
