Multi-instrumentalist and Grammy-nominated folk musician John McCutcheon will be live in concert at Sellersville Theater at 8 p.m. Oct. 26 with Tom Paxton, his friend and mentor.
During the course of a show, audiences will be treated to McCutcheon’s storytelling, banjo, guitar, harp, piano and hammered dulcimer.
The musicians have teamed up for a new album, “Together – John McCutcheon & Tom Paxton,” set for release Oct. 13, via Appalseed Songs.
What happens when two of folk music’s most beloved and prolific songwriters join forces? Songs about history, the news, baseball, cowboys, America, love, the remembered, the forgotten.
Gathering John’s familiar crew of supporting musicians (fiddle wizard Stuart Duncan, keyboardist Jon Carroll, bass player JT Brown, as well as special guest, Country Music Hall of Famer Charlie McCoy), the arrangements are compelling, the production pristine, and the performances stunning. From the stirring “Ukrainian Now” to the hilarious “Same Old Crap,” the immigrant story of “In America” to the heart stopping finale, “Together,” each song shines as would be expected of this partnership.
