When is the last time you heard genuine, heartfelt live music? The Open Book Coffeehouse offers that powerful experience on Saturday evening, March 21 with singer/songwriter Charlotte Morris.

Charlotte Morris was the winner of the 2025 Rose Garden Performing Songwriter Competition.

Her professional career goes back to January of 2018, when Charlotte joined Lonesome Traveler – a concert tour where the cast performed the history of folk music, starting with Woody Guthrie and ending with songs by the likes of Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell and Joan Baez. While on the road, folk legends including Tom Chapin, George Grove (Kingston Trio), Peter Yarrow and Paul Stookey (both of Peter, Paul and Mary) performed with the cast at various venues.

That same year, she released her first album.

One reviewer of her music enthused, “Charlotte shares a personally drawn performance that comes straight from the heart. Every lyric comes to life through a vocal rendition that carries across the pure sentiment and heartwarming tones, which leaves you with a sense of feel-good energy.” - Fierce & Fabulous Revolution
