Singer/songwriter showcase starts at Butter’s

Husband-wife musical duo Galynne Goodwill and Mark Riggenbach will help fill the musical void left by the closing of Clark Place by hosting a weekly singer/songwriter showcase at Butter’s Brickhause in downtown Point.

“Since moving to this area from Madison, Mark and I have been searching for an ideal venue to host a weekly Songwriter Showcase,” Galynne said. “We wanted to find a place that was close for UWSP students and support a local downtown business. Butter's Brickhause is one of the nicest venues on the Square in Stevens Point.”

Beginning Feb. 20, Galynne & MarkOnDrums will start the evening off with a set of their own music, and then will introduce a different showcase artist each week.

“There is a huge body of talent in the Central and NE Wisconsin area, artists writing their own music and promoting their art,” Galynne said. “Mark and I want to give these artists an opportunity to share their music in a showcase setting versus an open mic/open jam setting. Clark Place was home base for a lot of local musicians to either perform or support live, local music. We felt like we were a part of that family too. But we choose to remain optimistic. Live music will survive in Stevens Point, we cannot afford to believe anything less.”

Galynne and Mark are two of our very favorite regional performers. You’ve probably seen Mark providing that cool, shuffly rhythm behind Dale Anderson and the Delta Jets. Galynne is a talented songwriter and singer and has performed extensively by herself and with the Voices of Eve.

It's all about the art of the duo, and this husband/wife team are masters of their art. Galynne Goodwill & Mark Riggenbach (aka MarkOnDrums) are scheduled to perform on Friday and Saturday at the Stone Harbor Resort in Sturgeon Bay at 8:30 pm.

When asked to categorize their style of music, Lounge Rock seemed to be the best description of their smooth, dynamic, feel good music. The magic of making music in real time without the use of sequenced back up tracks is what listeners find appealing about this duo. Galynne and MarkOnDrums work the space to their advantage with a creative collaboration of exceptional vocals, original music, and excellent choice of cover songs.

With the folk love of such greats as Joni Mitchell and Aimee Mann, Galynne Goodwill Stays true to form and shows she can compete in the big leagues.
