Ocean County Library Stafford Branch to Present ‘Jessica Carroll Sings Americana’

STAFFORD TOWNSHIP – It’s America’s birthday month! Experience a red-white-and-blue celebration in song when “Jessica Carroll Sings Americana” at the Ocean County Library Stafford Branch, 2:30 PM Wednesday, July 24.

Returning to the Branch on a wave of rave reviews from her previous appearance, Jessica will regale you with patriotic hymns and Americana folk songs, complete with stories about their origins and creation. If the spirit moves you, join right in! Jessica welcomes audience participation.
 
"I got my start singing about 15 years ago, performing for local senior centers and retirement homes,” the Riverside, NJ resident recalled. “I worked as a nanny and helped to raise many children, which led me to start entertaining and sharing my songs and stories with various libraries.”
