John McCutcheon Concert

Six-time Grammy nominated folk musician John McCutcheon performs in his 17th benefit concert for the Modesto Peace/Life Center. Johnny Cash called him the most impressive instrumentalist Ive ever heard. John is a master of the guitar, banjo, hammer dulcimer, piano, autoharp and fiddle. His socially and politically conscious songs inspire us, his songs about family and every-day life move us and his wicked sense of humor entertains us. Johns latest (and 40th!) album, To Everyone in All the World: a Celebration of Pete Seeger, was just released and will be available at the concert.

Mark and Cindy Lemaire will open the concert. Mark is known for his unique guitar style, with a delicate touch that goes straight to your heart. While his solo guitar pieces stand as complete statements, Marks harmonies with Cindy are so perfectly matched that they seem like two people with one voice, creating something both authentic and unique. They tour the world, performing in 2018 from New Zealand to Scotland to Canada, as well as here in the states.
