Music in the McKenzie Presents: Beth Bombara

Sunday, September 29 – 2:00-4:00 p.m.
Peoria Public Library North Branch
A Grand Rapids, MI native and current St. Louis resident, Beth has developed her signature sound over the past decade, drawing inspiration from not only her favorite rock, blues, and folk musicians but also from the places she’s lived in and toured through over the years, first as a member of Samantha Crain and the Midnight Shivers and then as a solo artist. Beth has steadfastly grown into her identity as a strong musician first and foremost, loath to be categorized as another delicate female singer-songwriter. Beth’s versatility in live performances and multi-instrumental chops make her much more than just another “girl with a guitar.” CDs will be available to purchase with proceeds going to the Friends of the Peoria Public Library.
