Event
JIM CRAIG & FRIENDS @ Hogeye Folk Arts
They're folk music's newest tradition: Jim Craig & Friends, a collection of the coolest folk performers to sing a note and pluck a string. Come and be treated to solo and ensemble performances by some of Chicago's premier folk talent. Songster Jim and his songstress wife Vivian Craig are still singin' strong after 35 years together. Jim's mellow guitar and vocal stylings are familiar and intoxicating, and few husband-and-wife duos sing of love and faith with as much believability as he and Vivian. Fred Campeau and Mitch Thomas have been a team since the early 70's, when they met while both were performing around Chicago. A former Volo Bogtrotter and expatriate of other bands, Fred plays guitar, banjo, fiddle and harmonica. Mitch teaches choir and theater and is a 2-time winner of the Wheatland Festival Folksinging Contest.
Dave Prine and Tyler Wilson-remembered as The National Recovery Act from the 1970's and '80's-return to the Hogeye stage with Jim Chesney. Watch and listen in amazement as they play a 45-minute game of Scrabble. (Just k-i-d-d-i-n-g. 50 bonus points!)
Show up in large numbers for this folk music revival under the main tent. 7:30 p.m. Macleish Hall at Lake Street Church.
