“Meredith Axelrod... sings and plays guitar as if she really returned to the pre-mic days. We’re not talking revisionist copy of so and so from way back when; we’re talking as if we plucked an original out of the era and time-traveled her to bless us with a taste of who we were when we had guts.” – JL Stiles Meredith Axelrod is a singer of early jazz and pre-1930s American pop music. She has performed with Dan Hicks, Maria Muldaur, Jim Kweskin, Geoff Muldaur, Cindy Cashdollar, Terry Zwigoff, Robert Crumb, the Cheap Suit Serenaders, and Craig Ventresco, and at venues around the United States and internationally, including The Great American Music Hall, the Freight and Salvage, and Jazz at Pearl’s, the San Francisco Festival of the Mandolins, as well as at the West Coast Ragtime Festival and the Blind Boone Ragtime and Early Jazz Festival. She has toured domestically and internationally.
