Alliance for the Arts in partnership with the Americana Community Music Association (ACMA) is excited to present “Songwriters in the Round.” Performers include Kim Mayfield, Marie Nofsinger and Tim McGeary. The outdoor concert will take place on our Greenmarket Stage, November 20th, from 3-5:00 p.m.
Kim Mayfield is better known as half of the Americana duo known as Reckless Saints. Reviewers have described her music as ‘pearly and sashaying,’ ‘pleasantly invoking the legendary Tammy Wynette’ and ‘haunted by Patsy Cline.’ Mayfield’s song, “Ring Around the Moon,” made her a semi-finalist in the 2019 International Songwriting Competition.
Known as the Outlaw Songwriter,award winning songwriter, national touring performer and recording artist Marie Nofsinger will take you on a journey into the soul of America. Lilting melodies, swamp stomp rhythms, as well as jazzy swing tunes carry the lyrics into your memory.
Tim McGeary has lived in Naples, Florida for the past 20 years and has been writing and performing songs since the 80’s. While with the band The Rescues (A&M Records), he toured with Billy Idol, Roxy Music, Depeche Mode, The Cure and many more. Recently, McGeary got a publishing deal in Nashville as a songwriter. His songs have been featured on TV shows “Smallville,” “One Tree Hill” and “Glory Days.”
