Chicago's Alt Folk troubadours Orillia debut at People's Brewing on Tuesday February 3rd!
Singer-Songwriter Andrew Marczac writes some serious earworms! With a high lonesome soulful voice and stunning musicianship and arrangements this duo will not disappoint and I'm very excited to be hosting them!

Doors 5pm / Music 6pm / 21+
Presented by Mom&Pop Productions

Under his moniker Orillia, Andrew Marczak follows the long tradition of folk music's more progressive stewards, commanding audiences with his unique bracing tenor and oft-skeletal arrangements. He has toured across the US and Germany and currently resides in Chicago with his partner and collaborator, Peach. His newest record, Fire-Weed, features songs from all ends of the indie rock spectrum. On it, the listener is greeted by lo-fi tape hiss-saturated oddities and full-band studio ballads recorded with a team of Chicago superstars including Peach, Local Memory and George Rezek (of Nashville’s Future Crib).
Orillia has received praise and airplay from NPR's Great American Folk Show, Holler Country, The Chicago Tribune, and radio stations across the U.S., Canada, and Germany. He has shared stages with acts like Dylan Earl, Elizabeth Moen, Country Westerns, and hemlock. In 2024, his alt-country band Toadvine performed at Spencer Tweedy's Avrom Farm Fest alongside acts like dehd and Hannah Frances.
2025 brought big things for Orillia, including a 30-day duo tour across the US, a 4-day tour in Germany (including a sold out show in Helmbrechts), and a packed full-band Vinyl Release Show in Chicago at the Hideout for his newest record Fire-Weed, a record which charted #11 for Top Adds on the NACC College Radio Charts in its release week and debuted at #130 on the NACC Top 200.

The Lafayette Dulcimer Gathering will play at Cumberland Park every Tuesday evening from 7pm to 8:30pm in June, July and August
All acoustic instrument musicians are welcome to join the jam and play along or, just bring a lawn chair and enjoy the music! Song sheets will be available.
