Kids in the Yurt: May Erlewine

Raised in a home full of art and music, Erlewine began writing songs at a very young age. As a teenager she hitchhiked across the country, honing her skills as a performer and absorbing the kind of stories and landscapes that would inform her music. Her songs show a very real connection and concern with everyday folk. In the following years, Erlewine would perform in every kind of venue imaginable, from street corners to festival stages to the live airwaves of A Prairie Home Companion. Lyrically, her songs are rooted in hard-wrought wisdom, joy and sorrow, simplicity, and stories from her own everyday experiences. Musically, these messages are wrapped up in traditional folk roots, Americana, old-time country swing, soul, and even rock and pop sensibilities.

This show will be geared towards kids, but everyone is welcome. The Yurt is a cozy, intimate venue set up on the patio of The Little Fleet. Doors open at 4:00 with a show at 4:30. In the event of a sold out show, there will be standing room only. Tickets are $7.
