A singer/songwriter from Arlington, Allison Preisinger is home from her first year at the Berklee College of Music in Boston and has announced an impressive schedule of performances around the region this summer.

“I’ve been learning a lot of theory, working with a band and doing lots of performances,” Preisinger said.

“It was a hectic year, living in the city,” Preisinger told The Arlington Times last week.

“It’s not like living in the country,” she said.

She performed last week in Bellingham and on the Starlit Skies show with Maia on KSER 90.7 radio on Memorial Day. She was at the Wayward Coffeehouse in Seattle May 29, at the Rock Hopper in Clinton, May 30, and was featured at the All Women’s Open Mic Showcase at The Fairhaven in Fairhaven, Bellingham June 1.

This week, on June 6, she’ll be Under the Red Umbrella in Everett at 1 p.m. She will be joining Eric Miller at the Hop Vine Pub in Seattle 7 p.m., June 7 and will travel to Portland in mid-June to play at Muddy Waters and the Twin Paradox Café June 17 and 18.

At Berklee, Preisinger focused her studies on songwriting, piano, guitar and vocal performance. She is working on her second full-length album.

Her first collection, “Moving On, Moving Forward,” debuted in 2006. She has been described as a mix between a Joni Mitchell folk style and rockier Neil Young acoustic vibe.

Preisinger performs with a down-to-earth openness. She is excited to share her new material in her home court this summer.
