DENVER
(April 2016) – Award-winning folk-bluegrass-Americana artist Mary Beth Cross will celebrate the release
of her new bluegrass-Americana EP, "Feels Like Home", with a concert
and meet-and-greet from 3-5 p.m. May 15 (Sunday) at Baur's Restaurant, 1512
Curtis St. in Denver.
Cross's latest project celebrates the
importance of home in the lives of average, everyday Americans. The eight-song
EP features originals, as well as classics written and/or performed by
legendary artists such as Paul Simon, Linda Ronstadt, Garry White, Van
Morrison, George Gershwin, and Dubose Heyward.
The artist will be joined on stage
by National Flat-Picking Champion and Grant Farm Band founding member Tyler Grant, Grant Farm Band bassist Adrian Engfer, banjoist George Guthrie, mandolinist Jack Dunlevie, and fiddler Chuck Hugenberg. Admission is free.
The EP is dedicated to
her late nephew, Christopher Chmiel, who died unexpectedly in 2015. "My latest
project includes cover songs that are part of the tapestry of my upbringing in
Wisconsin, as well as originals that reflect my current home in Colorado,"
said Cross, whose last project, "Beyond Good and Evil", was named
"2014 Folk-Country CD of the Year" by the National Traditional
Country Music Association.
Among the covers is "Kathy's Song", a
classic written and recorded by folk-pop legend Paul Simon.
