Folk Heritage Series: Tom Rush with Matt Nakoa

About this event

Tom Rush helped to shape the folk revival of the ’60s, the folk-rock movement of the ‘70s, and then the singer-songwriter renaissance of the ’80s and ’90s. James Taylor, Emmylou Harris, Tom Petty and Garth Brooks have cited Tom as a major influence. A natural showman, full of keen insights and a wicked sense of humor, Tom’s shows are filled with rib-aching laughter, sweet melancholy ballads, and gritty acoustic blues. Some of his hits include “No Regrets,” “Circle Game,” “Remember Song,” “Urge for Going.” and “Merrimack County.” Rush will be joined by the fabulous vocalist, pianist, guitarist Matt Nakoa, a popular Caffè Lena headliner in his own right.
