Cape Ann favorite Mari Martin has been entertaining audiences from Massachusetts to California with her compelling voice and signature stage presence for over 20 years. Mari’s influences run the gamut of popular music…from the Beatles to Stevie Wonder, the Rolling Stones to Billie Holiday. Throw in some Bonnie Raitt, Aretha Franklin, Alicia Keyes, Marvin Gaye, Dinah Washington, Eric Clapton, Earth, Wind and Fire, Ella Fitzgerald and Al Green, and you’re beginning to get the picture. Mari’s original arrangements present songs in new and often unexpected ways, bringing listeners a renewed appreciation for old favorites. Mari will appear with The Lucky Boys: Mark Retallack on keys, Eric Reardon on guitar, and Roger Brockelbank on drums.
