acoustic-guitar-coffee-e1293995603792University of North Texas graduate Lisa Markley will record a live CD of old standards and new songs this Friday at Uncle Calvin’s Coffeehouse, located in the fellowship hall of Northpark Presbyterian Church. Advocate editor Emily Toman wrote about the unique history of the nonprofit coffeehouse last year, detailing famous musicians who have performed live at the venue that touts itself as “a place where people can actually sit and listen to good music – minus the alcohol and cigarette smoke.”

Lisa Markley’s Friday evening performance will begin at 8 p.m. Markley’s sound is an exuberant blend of folk, jazz and blues. She will be joined by a host of world-class musicians, including Buddy Mohmed, Shelley Carrol, Drew Zaremba, Chris McGuire, William Foley, Andrew Griffith, Dillon Garrett and opening act, Bruce Balmer.
