TRACY GRAMMER
Tracy Grammer first saw Dave Carter perform at a songwriter showcase in 1996, just after moving to Portland, Oregon. "Here were stories that could stand alone as poetry, sung with compassion, intelligence, and a hint of Texas twang. Dave's entire presentation felt like home to me. I knew instantly had received my calling in life." Within weeks they were working up material with a band, began touring, and recorded their now-famous first album, When I Go. After Carter's untimely death, Grammer made Flower of Avalon, her much anticipated solo debut, which was the #1 most-played album on folk radio in 2005. At this intimate GiG performance, Grammer will play originals, instrumentals, and interpretations of the songs of Dave Carter and other stellar writers.
ALEX MARYOL
One of Santa Fe's most beloved homegrown artists, Maryol has been rocking his native state with an uptempo, contemporary blues band for years. Here we'll see the singer-guitarist in an acoustic mode, playing originals, tasty covers, and new material not yet heard by Santa Fe audiences. You never know who might drop by to sit in.
