About This Event
Marty O'Reilly appears at Mercury Lounge with Lily Talmers on the bill. Talmers writes of the innate divinity in humanity from a Midwestern vantage, her lyrics moving from sludge-covered and dismal to childlike and wondrous; her record It Is Cyclical, Missing You was recorded live—each song in one continuous take, often with a full band—and has been noted by NPR, No Depression, Under The Radar and The Bluegrass Situation.
