Delightfully insightful songwriter Marilyn Walker sprinkles the lyrical storytelling style of John Prine with a touch of Winnie the Pooh. Her eclectic background of ecosystem science, renewable energy, and activism drives her striking lyrics and enthusiastic performances. Her first studio album, At the Jamboree, was focused on children but veiled in adult themes, i.e., delight plus insight. She brings whimsy and humor to her writing and performances, whether she’s telling the true story of the fungus that is named after her, or going full on bawdy (when no children are present!) with her parody “Walking Around Naked” or her folk punk “Boyfriend in a Body Cast,” which she performs as her alternate identity of Stalker Walker. But she’s often tender and sweet in her approach, finding those moments in her own life that are relatable and touching. Marilyn is currently working on a new studio album, Water’s Gonna Rise, focusing on climate change as well as the human impacts of the rapidly changing world – homelessness, addiction, and injustice. Whether audiences are laughing, crying, or thinking, they almost all include one word in their description – delightful.
