Sun 4/2 @ 7PM
The Mountain Rose Concert Series, presented by local acoustic music nonprofit Folknet, showcases mostly local singer/songwriters who deserve more attention than they’ve gotten.
Its next showcase, taking place at Standing Rock Cultural Arts’ North Water Street Gallery in Kent, features Akron singer/songwriter Marilyn Dirrig, who has been involved in the area music scene for 40 year as a solo performer, band member and open mic host. Her music draws on rock and pop from the 50s through today, folk, blues and big band music. For her show in Kent, she’ll perform both old and new tunes from her repertoire, accompanied by percussionist Nancy Peters.
Admission is a suggested donation of $15, $5 for kids accompanied by an adult.
