Sugar Maple Concert Series. $30 ($22 adv.).
media release: Mean Mary could read music before she could read words and wrote original songs at age five. By age seven she was proficient on vocals, guitar, banjo, and violin, and her life became one long road show of events, venues, TV, radio, and film.
Today Mary plays eleven instruments and tours internationally. She is also an award winning song writer, book author, and recently her original banjo song, Iron Horse, (the story of Native American maiden and her horse racing against a train) received the IMA’s Vox Populi award for best Americana song (and has been viewed over 13 million times on YouTube): http://youtu.be/6CNB5OLUPM0.
