Last month, Mayla Embry – the 3-year-old daughter of local songwriter/producer Aaron Embry and his wife Nikki – was diagnosed with leukemia. Yes, it’s the same Mayla who was celebrated in the recent Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros song “Mayla.” On Oct. 3, Father John Misty, Inara George and Becky Stark – more artists are likely to be added – will perform at “A Show for Mayla” at the Bootleg Theater. Tickets for the benefit range from $17.50 to $100 and are available here.
Thank you, Kevin, for telling us about this. We certainly hope and pray for the best for Mayla and Aaron and Nikki. Our love goes out to them all.
