CHRIS DILLER
Beach-country songwriter riding the tide between Nashville and the mid-Atlantic coast. Chris Diller blends sun-soaked storytelling with a coastal Americana soul – perfect for boat days, bonfires, and starry porch nights.

When he’s not playing shows from Maryland to Delaware, he’s writing barefoot somewhere warm with a guitar in one hand and a surfboard in the other. Along for the ride is Darla, the scrappy terrier mix with a full bag of tricks.
New EP “The Beauty of It” out now.

Landis Harry Larry w/ Micah E. Wood
2026-01-31 19:30 - 22:30 | Creative Alliance, 3134 Eastern Ave, Baltimore, MD, 21224
Opening Act: Micah Wood
A fixture in Baltimore’s artistic landscape for 16 years, Micah E. Wood embodies the city’s creative spirit as a photographer, musician, and educator. His deep immersion in Baltimore’s diverse musical communities, from “wild and weird hip hop wordsmiths” to “seductive dance producers,” has cultivated a truly unique sound reflected in his music as well as his photography portfolio – a “sonic cholent, long-stewed in Charm City.” Recognized by Baltimore Magazine as “a prolific collaborator and charismatic performer,” Wood’s influence extends to his acclaimed photography, capturing “musicians of myriad genres in compositions that feel deeply intimate” (Baltimore Magazine, 2025), a journey recently chronicled in his 300-page book, Scene Seen: Baltimore Musician Portraits 2016–2024.
Building on the success of his 2022 pop-hook-soaked EP, ‘Ring Ring,’ which offered delightful rock perfect for a bouncy walk around the park, Wood now presents ‘You, Me, the Reign,’ his first album in three years. Born from a desire to escape chaotic external realities into a perfect bubble with a partner, this album took on new urgency after the 2024 election.

Performer: Landis Harry Larry
A synth punk/funk trio from Baltimore consisting of Landis Expandis and his two clones, Harry and Larry.
After growing up in New Haven, Connecticut, Landis “Expandis” McCord moved to Baltimore to attend Maryland Institute of Art, majoring in painting. The rock and soul band that he had founded while in school, All Mighty Senators, started to tour the United States during his junior year, having played around the school for one year.
​Landis has been mixing visual art with music all of his life, but focused on music as a career after postponing his art degree. After fronting All Mighty Senators for over 25 years, Landis still plays for them but has also formed the trio F City, and is a prolific area DJ. A majority of the promotional materials feature his distinct graphic design, which has become an integral part of his musical persona.

Star Bright Farm doors open at 3 PM and show begins at 4pm. Come early for Sweetheart Sip-and-Shop
at the farm’s wonderful gift shop beginning at 2:30 PM, including free champagne.
The band encourages attendees to bring along donations for House Of Ruth. Donations of clean new or
gently used women’s clothing and outerwear, free of stains, dirt or defects, will be collected at each
venue. In return, donors can pick a free Heaven Can Wait CD or button from the merch table.
The Love Riot Valentine events will be filmed by Mind Over Media Studios.
Love Riot is: Lisa Mathews (vocals, electric guitar), Mikel Gehl (backing vocals, guitar), Mark Evanko
(bass), Willem Elsevier (violin), “Young” Ron Campbell (backing vocals, drums)

LILY NEILL IN CONCERT AND CONVERSATION
2026-03-01 15:00 - 17:00 | Manor Mill, 2029 Monkton Rd, Monkton, MD, 21111
“One of the most challenging and provocative musicians of her time – Lily Neill’s daredevil approach works wonders.” – Irish Music Magazine
Lily Neill has captivated audiences around the world with the dynamism and breadth of her performances, and her infectious passion for the harp. Her versatility and command as a solo performer has seen her amass an impressive number of awards, and recognition from everyone from presidents and world leaders, to legendary Irish band, “The Chieftains”. Lily’s debut album, “Without Words”, was given a pre-nomination nod by the U.S. GRAMMY committee and was followed by “The Habit of a Foreign Sky”. Her latest album, “Tales and Golden Histories”, with Vesa Norilo, was hailed, “…a glittering, riveting and epic symphony” by At the Barrier and was included in their Best of 2023 list.
With a signature repertoire of original compositions, alongside an eclectic mix of ragtime, traditional music, tangos, and early music, Neill’s innovative flair is thrilling. Put aside everything you ever thought you knew about the harp and open your ears to the wealth of sound that two hands and thirty strings can conjure!
