Marcus continues to delight our audiences with his unique style and ability to "wear" a lyric.He has always wanted to include music by Tom Waits in a show, and we all know how well he interprets Leonard Cohen. Not many artists cover these two great composers so this is a great opportunity to hear some rarely heard classic songs. Marcus says all artists need a starting point and listening to others work gradually defines what a performer becomes in his own right, Leonard and Tom were his starting points.

Annapolis-based act Kings of Crownsville are a roots Rock band with a New Orleans flavor. The brainchild of New Orleans-raised guitarist/singer/songwriterSteve Johnson, the Kings play a rollicking, entertaining set that stirs Americana, Blues, and Jazz into the mix.
