Valley-based folk-punk trio Alex Mery & The Townsmen have been a hot topic around here these days. Their strong and crafty songwriting, combined with the fact that they’re just all-around cool people, is turning heads on our local music scene.

Not only are they taking the Valley by storm. Indeed, they might just take over the world when all is said and done.

Visitors to South Bethlehem’s Funhouse were treated on Thursday night to a versatile folk-punk performance from local trio Alex Mery & The Townsmen.

The trio, who are among the Lehigh Valley artists just confirmed to be performing at the Launch Music Conference & Festival in Lancaster this April, performed for more than three hours, mixing their originals with a bevy of modern and from-the-vault covers.

Frontman Alex Mery and bassist Kara Hartzell also took part of each set to perform solo selections, adding more diversity to a night of great tunes.
