Tom Paxton
Where: Birchmere
Date: 2007-11-03 19:30:00
Type:
Tom Paxton emerged from the same 1960s folk movement that produced artists such as Joan Baez, Judy Collins and Bob Dylan. His music, written with elegant and touching simplicity, carries messages of justice, hope and empowerment. The Associated Press calls the Kennedys, the husband and wife team of Pete and Maura Kennedy, "a delicious slice of jangly pop" with "yummy harmonies" and "killer hooks." The Kennedys have been charming audiences, record buyers and critics for the past decade with their exuberant mixture of folk, rock, country, pop and their own brand of secular gospel, a philosophical depth in their lyrics, and joyful, kinetic performances and recordings.

John Gorka has been part of the new folk movement since the late '80s, slowly and steadily carving out his niche. His honest writing and ability to say it all with an economy of words has won him much praise and his fans' devotion. Blessed with a great voice and great guitar and piano chops, Susan Werner is a multi-talented folk/pop singer and songwriter. Her eclectic and offbeat set of influences includes such names as Nanci Griffith, Jacques Brel, Thelonius Monk, Joni Mitchell, Sting and jazz diva Shirley Horn. But those influences only enhance the intimate, witty and virtuosic talents that have earned Werner a strong fan-base in clubs, concert halls and festivals worldwide.
