On Sunday June 15, Join Hamilton singer-songwriter and author Dave Pomfret as he hits the road to celebrate the launch of his novel Lilly—a deeply personal and hauntingly poetic story about grief, imagination, and the tangled beauty of mental health and family.
Lola will experience a blend of live music, spoken word, and open-hearted conversation, with the incomparable Martin Verrall—the real-life inspiration behind Marvin Carol—joining Dave onstage. Expect raw stories, shared songs, and moments that walk the tightrope between laughter and heartbreak.
Lilly is more than a book... it's a journey.
About the Author
Dave Pomfret is a songwriter and storyteller whose creative journey took an unexpected turn with Lilly, his debut novel. Known for crafting music that captures life’s raw emotions, Dave discovered Lilly as a fully formed idea that demanded to be brought to life on the page.
Drawing inspiration from his own family’s struggles with addiction, mental illness, and loss, Dave infused Lilly with heart, humor, and a touch of the surreal. His storytelling reflects his songwriter’s sensibility – finding beauty in chaos and connection in even the most fractured realities.
When he’s not writing with his lady, Michelle Morra, Dave is making music, spending time with his family, or chasing the next spark of inspiration. Lilly is a labor of love, dedicated to those who seek meaning in life’s most challenging moments.
