Peggy will be moving back to the UK later this spring so this may be your last chance to see her in person!

ABOUT PEGGY SEEGER:

Born in 1935, Peggy is Pete Seeger's half-sister and Ruth Crawford Seeger's daughter; her first life partner was the English songwriter Ewan MacColl, who wrote the song First Time Ever I Saw Your Face for her and to whom she bore three children. She is known for her excellent renditions of Anglo-American folksongs and for her activist songwriting, especially in the field of feminism. She plays six instruments: piano, guitar, 5-string banjo, Appalachian dulcimer, autoharp and English concertina.

Her best-known pieces are Gonna Be an Engineer and The Ballad of Springhill, which latter is rapidly becoming regarded as a traditional song. After living 35 years in England, she returned to the USA in 1994 and took up residence in Asheville, North Carolina. She moved to Boston in 2006 to take up a teaching job at Northeastern University.

She tours extensively in the USA and occasionally in the UK and Australia as a solo concert artist, singing and giving workshops. She has made 22 solo recordings and has participated in over a hundred recordings with other artists. Her 1998 CD, PERIOD PIECES: WOMEN'S SONGS FOR MEN AND WOMEN, received major attention from Billboard. A singer and multi-instrumentalist, she is considered to be one of North America's finest female folksingers. She records exclusively for Appleseed Recordings.

Her website, www.peggyseeger.com, contains further information, a discography, details about ordering, an itinerary and interesting insights into her creative life.


PRESS QUOTES:

"For decades, Seeger has been one of the most authoritative voices in American and English folk." - Chris Morris, Billboard

"Since 1959, Seeger has written hundreds of songs. Those who regard Joni Mitchell, Carole King, and Laura Nyro as the first generation of singer-songwriters to craft material from women's experiences should think again. Seeger is a missing link between the 1950s American folk-song revival and women's liberation; the guitar-toting chanteuses of the 1970s could not have existed without either of those movements." - Laura Pellegrinellli, The Village Voice

"Peggy's instrumental virtuosity is legendary: guitar, 5-string banjo, autoharp, English concertina, piano, as well as possessing a most extraordinary singing voice which surely gets better every year of her life. Yet some of the most magical moments of the evening were to be had when Peggy simply sat at the piano and tinkered, sharing gentle musical anecdotes with us or poems dedicated to the loves of her life." - Dave VanDoorn, Tradition Magazine

"Peggy Seeger ranks as one of the most important people who ever graced and shaped the British folk scene." - Ken Hunt, Folk Roots Magazine

"I wasn't prepared for quite how radiant, gracious and gutsy she would appear both in person and as a performer. It was like watching a master class in folk performance to be frank: a truly positive force." - Karine Polwart

"Ewan MacColl and Peggy Seeger had a profound effect on their contemporaries in the folk music world that can still be heard today." - Roy Bailey, BBC Online

"She is an irreplaceable repository of significant songs . . . direct, humanized music for real-life situations." - Larry Kelp, The Tribune, Oakland, CA

"Her success lies largely with her ability to work and write within traditional modes. Many of these songs sound as though they have been around over the centuries." - Ira Mayer, New York Times

That 1 Guy—real name Mike Silverman—amazes audiences with performances that are equal parts innovative sonic spectacle and entertaining visual showcase. The classically-trained-jazz-bassist turned-musical-mad-scientist will make a 2010 trek across the country with his Magic Pipe, a homemade instrument concocted out of steel plumbing tube that allows Silverman to deliver a mind-bending amalgamation of percussive rhythm and sound.

While That 1 Guy’s fan base continues to grow, he has also been embraced by his musical peers and predecessors. In 2008 Silverman spent time on the road with guitarist Buckethead, with whom he collaborated to form Frankenstein Brothers and release the album Bolt on Neck. Additionally he performed on Tom Waits’ 2006 album Orphans: Brawlers, Bawlers & Bastards, and his music has been featured on the Showtime hit “Weeds”.
