“Another
Year Blooms” is the latest from COYOTE, songwriters Marcy Brenner & Lou Castro
from Ocracoke Island, NC. This married couple have an engaging and
spontaneous presence, bringing listeners and audiences “into their living room”
with enchanting, intimate songs and colorful music tinged with folk, rock, blues
& jazz flavors.
During
Deepwater Theater’s
summer season, they host "Songs & The Stories Behind The Music" with
Noah Paley and are principal performers in the Ocrafolk Opry.
They also shared the stage with Noah Paley in Beaufort’s Tall Ships Festival and
Celebrate Our State Festival in High Point, NC.
COYOTE are listed in the NC Arts Council Touring Artist Roster and perform all
over the state and beyond including the annual Ocrafolk Music & Storytelling
Festival, Ocrafolk Opry “on the road”, Core Sound Decoy Festival, Beaufort
Seafood Festival, Frisco Jubilee, Manteo’s Carolista Festival and the Pittsburgh
Folk Society Calliope Series. They were the first act in the Pamlico Folk
Society Festival with folksinger Caroline Herring at the Old Pamlico Theater in
Oriental. They have contributed to many other coastal NC musical projects
and are featured as musicians in the Nicholas Sparks movie entitled “Nights In
Rodanthe" (for release September 2008).
Marcy and Lou are active music educators, directing children’s church music,
after-school music activities, youth band workshops and school residencies.
COYOTE has also produced “Home
To Me” (the first publication of their songs) and “Live
from the Outer Banks” (a collection from their first year onstage) to
glowing reviews for both their performances and their songs, which all have
reached the top 10 in peer reviews.

Review of “COYOTE
Live from the Outer Banks:
“The real draw of
the band is the tenderness that Marcy and Lou evince on stage, both
for the music they’re playing and for each other.”
-Charles Temple, The Ocracoke Island Observer, July
2003.
