HTMA Coffeehouse Opening Acts

Jerry LeCroy will open the HTMA coffeehouse on May 28th. Jerry LeCroy joined HTMA in 1994, and two years after that
was elected president. He served as president off and on for a good bit of the next twenty years. Jerry started out at the association with extremely limited musical skills, which have since developed to be only moderately limited, largely due to learnings picked up playing with other HTMA members.
Jerry is a fan of many genres of music, but when he is playing for others to hear tends to stay closer to what feels like home to him,
ballads and blues. He has a special affection for well-crafted lyrics, and is drawn to tunes that seem to him to create pictures of emotions or situations.
Mike Perry has been playing guitar and singing songs since he was 12, or I could translate that to the year of 1968. Mike loves to play covers of some of the great songs he grew up listening to. Mike attends various OpenMic’s around town to exercise his craft.
Marylyn Coffey performed locally with The Lonesome Lovers throughout the 1990’s. In addition to providing vocals, and playing percussion, harmonica and guitar, she performed many of her originals which we will hear during the coffeehouse.
This program has been made possible by a 2025 Arts & Cultural Grant from Arts Huntsville funded by the City of Huntsville.
