Although a majority of the annual Burning River Fest music lineup features elite Northeast Ohio original talent, the bookers found room on the bill for young New York City-based folk-pop singer-songwriter Caitlin Mahoney. She’s got a 6:30 PM Saturday slot there.
But to make it worth her while to travel all that distance, she’s also booked a Friday evening show at the Brothers Lounge wine bar, probably a better environment for those who want to soak in her evocative narrative lyrics, which she says were influenced by those of Bruce Springsteen and her self-assured, surprisingly mature voice, well-schooled by her background in musical theater.
Mahoney left school in Florida after a semester to spend time travelling in Europe, picking up the experiences that fueled her songs. Returning to the U.S. in 2010, she’s been busy playing around her new hometown New York and writing songs. Some of them found their way onto her recently released four-song EP, West for a While, with tracks that range from spare and introspective to those with spirited, full-band arrangements.
The show is free.
