Join us for a fun evening where you can experience great music and engaging conversations and get to know the amazing singer-songwriters in our community.
Featuring Jory Marshall, a professional guitar player and instructor who specializes in theory and jazz from the Schwob School of Music. Jory takes an approach focused on guitar techniques, improvisation, music theory, and skills. His songwriting hits jazzy notes and is punk-infused into a creative, forward-moving music style all his own.
Katie O is a 21-year-old singer-songwriter from LaGrange. Her music is intimate, lyric-focused, and authentic, influenced by storytellers such as Anais Mitchell, Bob Dylan, and Adrianne Lenker. A Berklee College of Music graduate out of Boston, MA, Katie has been awarded the Berklee world tour scholarship, Cliff Bradley endowed scholarship, Berklee grant, and Songwriting Achievement scholarship. She has played at various venues and festivals in Georgia and Massachusetts, including the Hillside Festival, Rockweave Music Festival, Berklee Earthapalooza, and several writers’ rounds at Pure Life House of Music. She also won a spot at the bi-annual famous Eddie’s Attic Shootout in Decatur, GA, finishing 3rd in the finals.
Liam McDonald is a multi-instrumental wonder from Lagrange, and the frontman of the up-and-coming band, The Ottermen. He is self-learned on guitar, piano, and harmonica (as can be heard in his rough-around-the-edges way of playing). His style is rooted in bluegrass and folk with flavors of Americana/country. His passionate storytelling takes listeners on a journey of incredible highs and somber lows.
