Marcellus Free Library plans March events
Sunday, March 10 at 2 p.m. – Alison and Zoë Mullan-Stout in Concert
Alison and Zoë Mullan-Stout are Irish-born sisters who have been singing together their whole lives. They are singer-songwriters who create enchanting harmonies with their poetic, folk-inspired lyrics. In recent years, they have been performing as an acoustic duo in the Central New York area opening for artists such as Richard Shindell at Auburn Public Theater and The Burns Sisters at Homer Center for the Arts. They draw inspiration from their Celtic roots, their love of nature, and from peoples’ stories. Their all-original EP, entitled “Home Is…”, was recorded at SubCat Studios in 2015. The performance at Marcellus Library will include recently written and learned songs from their time traveling in Ireland. Free and open to music lovers of all ages. Refreshments and a meet and greet with the artists will take place following the performance.
