Delightfully insightful songwriter Marilyn Walker is back with a new full-length album recorded live at The End music venue in Lafayette, Colorado. Marilyn likes to say that if she were a brand, it would be the local farmer’s market, reflecting her love of community and sustainability. The title track, Boulder Baby Boomer, is “Both a poke at our community as well as a response to all the ‘Hey boomers’ out there. We may be older than them, but we have plenty to contribute.” In her intro to Back in the Day, Marilyn explains that the evening’s theme is “bipolar,” covering both ends of the spectrum of emotions. From the sublimely funny Too Much Stuff and It Wasn’t Decaf to the devastating realities of a missing girl child of a single mother (Waiting for Marie) to a 14 year old girl separated from her family and locked in a cage (Before I Turn 15), no topic is off limits. Backed by Dawnia Dresser on vocals and Julian Peterson on guitar and vocals, Marilyn combines her sweet “girl next door” voice with her own playing on guitar, ukelele, and keyboard. Boulder Baby Boomer showcases Marilyn’s delicious stage presence and storytelling brilliance in front of a live audience. Marilyn’s songs, as a whole, are a love song to the world, an invitation to sit up and pay attention to all that is happening. Boulder Baby Boomer is a sampling of this delicious concoction. Strap in and enjoy the ride!

Boulder Baby Boomer was recorded and engineered by John Remington of Dog House Music and Remington Music, and mastered by Anna Frick of Ally Sound.
