About Bobbylene:
Bobbylene is folk-pop group comprised of Bobby Katz and Marlene McCarthy from New York City. The two met while studying music at NYU. Bobby, a jazz saxophonist and Marlene, a classical pianist joined forces and started writing and recording music in a completely different genre: pop- influenced folk music. Their debut EP, “Where Love Can Find Me and You” was released in 2018 and received US public radio airplay. Their music has also been selected as songwriting contest winners by Radio Airplay. The duo’s self-titled EP, a collection of five songs recorded with Lost Harbor Music in Nashville, Tennessee. Marlene and Bobby moved to Midcoast Maine six months ago. Marlene teaches piano at Bay Chamber Concerts and Bobby works as a music producer and sound engineer.
