TONIGHT: Ramada @ 9:oopm!

Don't Forget! I will be at Harley's Lounge/Ramada TONIGHT!!
9:00PM!

Sparrow Tree will kick off the night with a full band performance.

I will be playing uke songs (sprinkled with a couple guitar tunes) with special guest Matt Bullock (Mary Mugford & The Oneder...? i think i'm funny.)

Troy Graham will wrap up the night with his solo tunezzz.

It's going to be rad in a robot kind of way (roborad?)
It's been a long time and I'm coming out of hiding to (hopefully) make you smile! See you there!

P.S. Are you a tweet? Follow MY Twitter! for special updates (or updates about random, nonsensical things.)

Harley's Lounge/Ramada on 09.23!

Hi Friends!

It's been quite some time and I hope you all have been well. Fall is here and it's the season of change! I've been hiding out for a while and have written a new song on the uke titled "When We Turn". If you make your way to join me at the Ramada on the 23rd, you'll be able to hear it for the first time! yowy.

Ramada, September 23rd.
9:00pm!

Sparrow Tree
Mary Mugford
Troy Graham

I will be accompanied by a musical guest who will make my songs sound much better. It will be neat and I believe your ears will like it. Your hearts might, too, if I'm really lucky.

FREE MUSIC from I LOVE CATS! and DDSG ending their cd release tour!

It's bright out! Summer rules.

Update: My next scheduled music time is August 24th on 3rd Street, 4:oo-7:oo pm! I'll let you know what business I will be outside of, shoving music notes in your head.

The show on 3rd on the 15th was really fun! I got a busking type of feeling--and it was free and filled my insides up with good feelings. The weather couldn't have been any more perfect: blue skied, sunny, everyone enjoying the weather and smiling. I think for Aug. 24th, I will try and work out a mic and amp situation. With all of the amazing musicians lining 3rd, my voice was straining to make a peep! You live and learn. It was great.

I played a music workshop called "My Gen-gen-generation!" at Hiawatha Music Festival and it went swimmingly. I shared the stage (or lawn :) with Troy Graham, Cousin Curtis and Sam Graves. I played "Shine With Me", "Your Favorite Robot" and "Your Favorite Robot Part II"! The robot songs got people laughing--which is my favorite thing to do. A great experience! Thank you Rob LaLonde for including me!

In other news, I was gifted a fixed-up-with-TLC electric guitar and amp from two insanely lovely people in my life for my birthday! The guitar makes me feel sassy and the amp has two, hand painted robots on it. Thank you so much Matthew T. Bullock and Lukas Hyde for supporting my musical addiction :) I love you, kids.

NOW! I LOVE CATS! FREE RECORDINGS from Seattle on their tour! Do yourself a favor and download them all--it's like dessert for your ears! Also, Mostly Midwest makes me happy. Follow 'em on Twitter and they will make you happy, too.

Dan Daniels and The Southern Gents are wrapping up their 17 day CD RELEASE tour across the country! Their music is available for download on their website or you can contact them for a cd for only $8.00! Get on the ball--it's a great steal and you'll need your dancing shoes!

Until next time, ladies and gents,
Mary Mug

Let's play music on Third Street!

Hi friends.

Take a stroll down Third Street on July 15th, 4:oo PM - 7:oo PM! Third Street businesses will each have a performer outside, luring you in with their fine tunes. It's gonna be a trip. You know you're going to want ice cream (chocolate cone dipped in chocolate) from Frosty Treats. Come eat it by me while I play for you and I promise I won't get upset when it drips on my feet.

I'll be playing again on Third Street on August 24th, 4:oo PM - 7:oo PM.

I'll keep you updated when I find out which business I will be playing outside of :)

Don't forget to see the show this Saturday, July 10th, at the YMCA!

Stay neat!

Mary Mugford says 'Get On The Ball and Love Cats!'

I've been hiding out...but...peek-a-boo! Hi.

I have a show scheduled at the YMCA in Marquette, MI on July 10th. I do not have the details yet, but I know I was asked to share the stage with some very cool cats. If you come join, I will play you some tunes on the guitar and plug my ukulele into an amp. Yow!

Hiawatha music festival is around the corner. I will be running a music workshop with Cousin Curtiss and Troy Graham. I believe we will be singing you songs underneath a comphy tent on Saturday, early afternoon. I also volunteered as a monitor--so if I do not see you at the workshop, I will wave to you as we both explore.

In other music news:

Dan Daniels and the Southern Gents are releasing their rockin' cd for your hands and ears and dancing enjoyment this Friday, JUNE 18th, at The Peter White Public Library @ 7:ooPM. It's free (the show, not the cd.)! These gents rocked their way into heads and the Marquette Mining Journal. Check it!

AND

I Love Cats! have been sneaking their way into outlets found around Marquette! When will they play next? Check out their exclusive interview with Mostly Midwest!

Until next time,
Mary ThUGford
