ALL IN THE FAMILY Husband and wife folk duo David Surette and Susie Burke (above) share the stage with a trio called Lulu Wiles that includes their daughter, Isa Burke, at the Me & Thee coffeehouse in Marblehead on Friday, Sept. 16.

Together since 1988, Surette and Burke perform their own blend of contemporary, traditional, and original folk and acoustic music.

Burke has long been singing on stages in the Seacoast area of New Hampshire as a soloist, member of several local bands, and in several duos. Her musical influences encompass folk, swing, and country, as well as Broadway show tunes and classic ballads.

Surette is well known as an accompanist in New England’s contra dance and Celtic music circles and as a studio musician.

Lula Wiles includes three young women who grew up with music. After attending the Maine Fiddle Camp, they studied at the Berklee School of Music in Boston. The band was formed and they began performing across New England.

The three band members play multiple instruments and also alternate as lead singer while they gather around a single microphone. Burke and Ellie Buckland switch between fiddle and guitar, while Mali Obomsawin plays the upright bass and guitar.

The group’s repertoire covers a variety of music, but is based in traditional folk and acoustic ballads that blend their vocal harmonies.

The coffeehouse is in the Unitarian Universalist Church of Marblehead, 28 Mugford St. Doors open at 7:30 p.m.; show begins at 8 p.m. Tickets are $16 in advance; $19 at the door.

A DIFFERENT LENS “An Art That Nature Makes: The Work of Rosamond Purcell,’’ a documentary by Molly Bernstein, is being screened at CinemaSalem, Friday, Sept. 16 through Sept. 22.

Purcell, a Somerville-based photographer, has had more than 50 one-person shows, and her work is represented in the permanent collections of many American museums.

The film explores her unconventional approach to photography. She’s obsessed with things others may find mundane or useless, scouring junkyards, libraries, and the back rooms of museums for materials he can bring to life with her camera. Purcell also documents oddities in nature.

The film reveals the artist in her element, whether it’s working in the studio or rummaging for treasures. The documentary also contains interviews with those who’ve worked closely with her.

Purcell answers questions at CinemaSalem, 1 East India St. Mall, at 6:15 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 18. Call 978-744-1400 or visit cinemasalem.com.
