Mean Mary * Kyle Orla

Award-winning musician/writer and fan favorite (over 35 million views on her YouTube videos), Mean Mary literally grew up in music. She evolved from a child prodigy who played for tips on the streets of Nashville (“startling talent,” said The Tennessean) to a seasoned performer and headliner of over 4,000 festivals and concerts (“the voice of a ragged angel combined with the banjo playing of the devil,” says No Depression).

Deering Banjos named her their Goodtime Ambassador, and Janet Deering describes her banjo playing as giving her “chills.” Equally versatile on guitar, fiddle, and eight other instruments, Mary is known internationally for her lightning-fast fingers, haunting vocals, and intricate story songs. As a high-energy performer who thrives on variety—and a songwriter who chooses unusual subject matter—anything from ghost pirates to demon guitars could romp through a Mean Mary show.

Kyle Orla is a multi-faceted strings player from Duluth, Minnesota. Equally versed as a solo artist as he is as a music collaborator, his guitar playing and folk fiddling have become well-lit fixtures in clubs and dance halls across the Upper-Midwest.

He currently performs with The Field Birds, and from time-to-time sits in with Charlie Parr and Four Mile Portage.
