LAVALLETTE – Revel in the lore of sailing ships and maritime life when Charlie Zahm spins musical seafaring sagas in “An Evening of Maritime Songs,” 7 PM Wednesday, October 5, at the Ocean County Library Upper Shores Branch in Lavallette.

Charlie’s selections for all ages will weave musical magic that recalls the age of tall ships, seagoing men, lighthouses guiding them home, lovely ladies, and life on the open sea and the shore.

Charlie’s rich baritone has been described as “coming along once in a generation.” His passion for performing and guitar mastery have earned Charlie a place among the most successful entertainers on the festival circuit, and at maritime, Celtic, and American Traditional music events east of the Mississippi.

With authentic love and respect for musical tradition, dashes of wit and a merry twinkle in his eyes, Charlie draws audiences into the stories behind the songs.

Registration at www.theoceancountylibrary.org/events is required for this free program. For more information, visit the Branch, 112 Jersey City Avenue, Lavallette, or call (732) 793-3996.

The program is sponsored by the Friends of the Upper Shore Branch. Prior to the performance, at 6:30 PM, the Friends will hold a general membership meeting. New prospective members are welcome.
