JOHN McCUTCHEON IN-PERSON CONCERT IS SOLD OUT! You can still purchase LIVESTREAM tickets and join us from home on Thursday, October 22 from 7:30 - 9:30 PM EDT. Concert will be live-streamed on the Old Songs YouTube Channel. $15/pay what you can for livestream. Tickets: mccutcheon.oldsongs.org

John McCutcheon is simply one of our most respected and loved folksingers. Multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, singer, storyteller, recording artist, producer, author, educator, and committed grassroots political activist, he is indeed “Virginia’s rustic Renaissance man” (the Washington Post). But it is in live performance that John feels most at home, whether in a major concert hall or theater, in an elementary school auditorium, on a festival stage, or at a farm rally. Whether in print, on record, or on stage, few people communicate with the versatility, charm, wit, or pure talent of this man. folkmusic.com
