Artist info:

ellen cherry (lowercase letters intentional!) is an award winning song and story alchemist, musician and performer, based in Baltimore, MD. Mixing equal parts of pathos and humor throughout her songs, ellen cherry is mysterious and powerful on stage and her banter gives audiences a peek into a whimsical, curious mind. She seamlessly fuses her love of History, Poetry, and Literature with the Usual Suspects of Love, Loss, and Despair, with a powerful, commanding voice and skill on both guitar and piano. Her current project is a new touring program called "Portraits in Song" that showcases her love of storytelling and her passion for history and women's equality. More information about ellen can be found at www.ellencherry.com

Andrew Grimm is the singer-songwriter behind the long running Baltimore, Maryland band, June Star. For nearly 20 years he has been blurring country and rock and roll sounds while writing songs about love, reminiscent of The Replacements, Lou Reed, and Jimmie Rodgers. Whether with a band or solo acoustic, Grimm's words and voice cut with immediacy and emotion; his performances invite the listener to see where it hurts and how it gets better.
