Her songs have singable lyrics and memorable melodies that capture stories about every day life , the ups and downs and in-betweens. Her latest CD is “Blossoms in the Sun.” It was a Top 5 pick in the September 2022 is- sue of Metronome Magazine.

Mark Zelermeyer & Friends will also perform a set. Telling stories about everyday life, Mark’s songs are always thoughtful and engaging, with lyrics ranging from poignant to funny, heartfelt to uplifting. Backed by Bob Metzger on guitar and John Vandale on bass, Mark and the band have been steadily building their fanbase as they perform around Greater Boston and beyond, as far away as England. Voted “Audience Favorite” at last year’s Linden Tree Coffeehouse Potpourri, their second full-length album will be released early 2025. According to Metronome, “Mark Zelermyer delivers a collection of  poignant songs on his debut release, Prior to Leaving.”
