One of the most marvelous things about live music in Cleveland is the wonderful and unexpected places that it takes you. Places where one would not expect to witness joy-inducing song, places that make you feel as though music, in this city, is truly everywhere.
One such location is the third floor of the Cleveland Public Library, on an expansive landing between two gloriously intricate staircases. It was here where I watched singer-songwriter Marye Lobb perform a series of heartfelt and powerful songs on the afternoon of Saturday, April 6.
