The Brewery Arts Center brings back Musicale@TheMaizie this weekend. Today’s event will begin at 7 p.m. with two talented performers, Kingwhistler and Charlie Marks.
Frontman and songwriter, Nick Aliberti, AKA Kingwhistler, draws inspiration from his travels, having lived all over the country from Maine to Arizona, New York City to Los Angeles, and all the way to Carson City, where he currently resides.
Kingwhistler kicked off the 2019 Levitt Amp Summer Series at the Brewery Arts Center opening for “Antsy McClain,” opened for “The Black Lillies” at Piper’s Opera House, played festivals such as the Nevada State Fair, been featured on KNVC, and played numerous solo shows and private events throughout Northern Nevada.
Aliberti received the Performing Artist Grant for Songwriting in 2019 from the Sierra Arts Foundation. He was also selected to be part of the exclusive Ben Folds Songwriter Retreat in 2021 with mentors Ben Folds and Dave Stroud.
Marks is a folk and roots musician based out of Reno. Marks brings raw old-time energy to traditional and original folk tunes. Singing with the accompaniment of banjo and guitar, his music has been compared to folk greats like Woody Guthrie, Roscoe Holcomb, and Townes Van Zandt.
