Tracy Grammer in concert tonight at Leo Coffeehouse

Tracy Grammer, one of America’s most popular singer/songwriters, performs at 7:30 p.m. tonight in the first special concert of the season at the Leo Coffeehouse at Zion United Church of Christ at Indian Mound and Montgomery Rd.

Since 1998 Grammer has recorded eight CDs. Her solo Flower of Ava-lon was the #1 most played album on folk radio for 2005. Mary Chapin Carpenter sings harmony on three cuts on the CD, which was produced by John Jennings, producer for Carpenter and Indigo Girls.

Grammer has also gotten some nice appraisals of her work from others in the music world. “Tracy Grammer is a brilliant artist and unique individual. Her voice is distinctive, as is her mastery over the instruments she plays.” Those words would be nice enough coming from just about anyone, but in this case the quotation is from Joan Baez.

Tickets for the concert are $12 for Leo members and $15 for non-members on the day-of show. Call 513-321-8375 or go to queencityballadeers.org to use the PayPal option.
