Saturday 22nd – Bob Martin
$18 general admission - $15 seniors /military - $14 TFFM members

Martin's lyrics have a very American style to them, simple and understated yet concise and often powerful. This is not the poetry of metaphor and myth but the straightforward art of the folk storyteller.

Bob Martin was born in Lowell, Massachusetts in 1942. While attending Suffolk University in Boston during the 1960s, he was influenced by the Cambridge folk scene and played at the Nameless Coffeehouse, Club 47 (now Club Passim), and other folk clubs. Emerging from the same New England city as Jack Kerouac, Martin was heavily influenced by the beat poet's writing and career. It was in 1972, fifteen years after Kerouac's On The Road was published, that Bob Martin made his first album Midwest Farm Disaster for RCA Records in Nashville. He worked closely with Chet Atkins, an executive at RCA at the time and many exceptional studio musicians including drummer Kenneth Buttrey, a key player on Bob Dylan's Blonde On Blonde album. Due to personnel changes at the label and the onset of disco, Martin's career was not given priority.

Our Children’s Concert will again be on the 3rd Saturday of each month @ 11am, Oct. through May.  Performers TBA by June 2009
