Local vocalist Ella Mae Dixon returns home to the Cape this weekend for two shows -- Saturday, July 8 at the Payomet tent in North Truro and Sunday, July 9 at Cape Cinema in Dennis.

Ella Mae Dixon, originally from Wellfleet, is a cabaret singer and jazz vocalist living in New York City. Ella Mae is drawn to the music of a bygone era. Her performances give new energy to old melodies while paying homage to the styles of yesteryear.

In March, Ella Mae made her New York City solo concert debut to a sold-out crowd at Birdland Jazz club. The now critically acclaimed show, titled “I’m Old Fashioned,” reimagines vintage tunes written before the year 1960 with new arrangements by guitar virtuoso Sean Harkness. Ella Mae is thrilled to return to her hometown to present this debut show to the Cape community.
