Marian Runk and Emily Nott
Arts + Literature Laboratory welcomes singer/songwriters Marian Runk and Emily Nott on Saturday, December 14 at 7:00pm. Tickets are $20 general admission, $15 ALL Member, $10 students in advance online, or $25 at the door for everyone.
Join Marian Runk and Emily Nott for a night of folk and country-inspired songs and storytelling. These Midwestern-based songbirds will bring both warm and melancholy brightness to the dark winter night.
Dallas-born, Chicago-based Marian Runk's life-long fascination with storytelling evolved from book arts and comics to songwriting and performing. With the 2024 release of her second album, Two Wires and a Spark, Marian Runk hones her musical style, traversing classic country, Western swing, bluegrass, jazz and folk. Listeners may feel the influence of Karen Dalton and Gillian Welch as Runk delivers lyrics that examine domestic relationships and existential themes including (mis)communication, grief, anger, disappointment, loneliness, and of course, love.
Chicago-based Emily Nott is a singer/songwriter with a deep folk and roots sound. She writes plaintive, poetic lyrics with earnest melodies inspired by the folk traditions she was raised in. She studied ballad singing in West Virginia and grew up playing folk music with her family in Michigan. She's inspired by poet songwriters like Gillian Welch, Connie Converse, and Judie Sill. She was a 2018 recipient of a Chicago Arts and Culture grant for her debut album Time Before, which was received as an incredible record...there is a stripped-down beauty to the work that [Emily is] doing that harkens back to a simpler time." (Chicago Crowd Surfer).
