Mark Erelli: Spring Green Album Release Concert with special guest Liv Greene
Critically acclaimed singer/songwriter Mark Erelli is a Boston-based veteran of the folk and roots music scene, renowned for his emotional honesty, craftsmanship, and warmth. Erelli exploded out of the gate in 1999 when he won the prestigious Kerrville New Folk Award in the wake of his “auspicious debut” (Billboard), joining the ranks of previous honorees like Lyle Lovett and Nanci Griffith. More recently, Erelli penned the anti-gun violence song “By Degrees,” recorded in collaboration with Rosanne Cash, Sheryl Crow, and others, which garnered a nomination for Song of the Year at the 2019 Americana Honors and Awards. He followed this honor with a pair of records that drew comparisons to both Tom Petty and John Prine, as well as praise for their energy, grace, and resilience. Now, on his fourteenth solo album Spring Green, Erelli delivers his most cohesive and emotionally resonant work to date—a meditation on vulnerability, endurance, and renewal.

Following 2023’s Lay Your Darkness Down, which chronicled his response to vision loss from retinitis pigmentosa, Spring Green finds Erelli in a place of hard-won peace. Co-produced with longtime collaborator Zachariah Hickman and tracked largely live over three days, the album feels fluid and organic—more watercolor painting than photographic snapshot. Its intimate sound recalls classic singer-songwriters like Jackson Browne and James Taylor, prioritizing storytelling and emotional clarity over stylistic showmanship.
By choosing to release Spring Green independently through Bandcamp and personally fulfilling each order, Erelli reaffirms his commitment to authentic connection over industry convention. The album stands as both an artistic statement and a survival guide—proof that true strength lies in softness, and that being wholly oneself is more than enough.
Liv Greene is a Nashville based folk artist known for her laser-accurate intonation, her award-winning witty songwriting, and her jaw-dropping command of the guitar. “She has one of those pure voices that stopped me in my tracks the first time I heard it” (Sarah Jarosz). Deep Feeler, her sophomore album, is feminine, queer, and defiant— a vulnerable snapshot of hard-won self-acceptance. Greene self-produced and recorded Deep Feeler primarily live to tape in Nashville’s Woodland Sound Studios, with collaborator Matt Andrews (Gillian Welch & Dave Rawlings, O Brother Where Art Thou) and a dreamy band of friends including Jack Schneider, Sarah Jarosz, Dom Billett, Elise Leavy, Jordan Tice, and Christian Sedelmeyer. The resulting collection of lilting melodies and poignant storytelling is a bold achievement, marking Greene’s arrival as a powerful new voice in the songwriting tradition of Emmylou, Patty, Gillian, and Lucinda – in her own way.
