John McCutcheon
Think of McCutcheon as an incarnation of Pete Seeger and Mr. Rogers, Will Rogers and Bruce Springsteen, and above all Everyman, righteously passionate and impishly playful, blessed with gifts as a songwriter, historian, musician and storyteller that have won him praise in Australia as "the most overwhelming folk performer in the English language," from a Russian critic as "the most versatile and compelling performer this reviewer has ever seen," and from Johnny Cash as "the most impressive instrumentalist Ive ever heard."

Add to that the 31 albums in his catalog, and the six Grammy nominations and multiple Parents Choice and American Library Association awards theyve won, stir in the diverse and growing following that has flocked to his shows, around the world and as nearby as a school or concert venue near you, and the point is made clear: John McCutcheon is as timeless as tradition, as immediate as tomorrows headlines, and as vital as any artist who seeks to enlighten as well as entertain.

"This notion of telling stories of ordinary people who have done great things, and carrying those stories from one place to another, of telling people this is where Ive been, these are the stories I can bring you, is the heart of what I do," McCutcheon sums up. "Thats my goal. If you can recognize yourself in my songs, then Ive done my job."

Cited as "the perfect example of the modern folk musician" by Sing Out! magazine, lauded by Utne Reader for conveying "his message about the amazing endurance of whats best in American culture," McCutcheon lives in Georgia but keeps moving, toward wherever he senses theres still a story yet to be told.
