John McCutcheon has been described by the Washington Post as "folkmusic's rustic renaissance man." Sing Out! magazine proclaimed, "when pressed for a perfect example of the modern folk musician it is John McCutcheon's name that comes to mind." An award-winning singer, songwriter, composer, teacher, archivist, activist, author and poet, he offers one of the most diverse battery of options for any community, promoter or organization. Here is a sampling of how John can visit your community...

* Concert      An evening of songs and stories tailored to the community and/or organization hosting him. "Little feats of magic," "storytelling with the richness of literature," "a rollicking triumph of Americana" are only some of the descriptions of his performances. Whether in some of the major performance venues of North America, in a library auditorium or in a fundraiser for a community group "few people communicate with the grace and power of John McCutcheon."

* Lecture/Concert      A popular choice for universities and conventions. John has spoken about culture and community, the power of song, non-violence and the wonder of reading and books to groups throughout the world.

* Family Concerts and Schools      John's first audiences were school children and his 6 Grammy nominations have thrilled families and school children on 4 continents.

* Workshops       A skilled teacher on a wide variety of subjects, John has introduced thousands to the power of their own talents as writers, instrumentalists and performers. His songwriting and hammer dulcimer workshops, in particular, are much-sought-after and hard-to-find opportunities to spend time with an acknowledged master at these skills.

* Festivals      John has headlined festivals on four continents performing main stage concerts, leading workshops and song-circles, joined in theme-concerts and interacted with audiences large and small in profound and inspiring ways.
