Signposts and Marks is the second solo album by New England-based singer/songwriter Erin Ash Sullivan and it will arrive on July 26th, 2024. Produced by Doug Kwartler at Hollow Body Studios in Chelmsford, MA, the album is Bluegrass-infused and focuses on “the small moments that reveal our humanity.” The song and video for “Goat on a Stone Wall” are out now.

The album specifically captures a time in Sullivan’s life when she is “fully enmeshed in a web of relationships–as a mother, a daughter, a wife, a sister, a friend”, and the songs “explore how we preserve our individuality even as we disappear in our connections to others.”

A New England native, Erin Ash Sullivan’s music reflects a sense of place, and her lyrics are always drawn from her lived experience. Sullivan released her debut solo album, We Can Hear Each Other, in 2021 and she was a 2023 “Most Wanted” selection from the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival.

She won the Rose Garden Coffeehouse Performing Songwriter Competition and the Mark Erelli Judge’s Choice Award in the New England Songwriting Competition, and she has been a finalist in the Great American Song Contest and the Mid-Atlantic Song Contest.
