$First Fridays: \u201cLove Songs\u201d with Mardi Morillo, Alex Walsh, and E.G. Phillips$

For his first First Friday show E.G. Phillips invites songwriters Mardi Morillo and Alex Walsh for a tribute to one of the most ubiquitous and universal forms of popular song — the “Love Song” — through what exactly constitutes a song that fits that billing may be open to “interpretation.”
After losing vision in one eye, Mardi Morillo quit his job and found music. He started writing songs and it changed his life. After being someone who was isolated and closed off. Mardi describes his songs as “my heart on a table.” He tries to make simple music from an honest emotional place that, hopefully, people can connect with.

E.G. Phillips is a San Francisco based songwriter who creates lyric driven songs with his own special blend of whimsy and cinematic imagery which he uses to give a wry take on dealing with the longings of the heart and the madness of existence. You could call his music jazz-infused progressive folk — "Bob Dylan with flatted fifths" or "lounge music that falls somewhere between Tom Waits and They Might Be Giants."
“Ducks With Pants” is his fake band.
