Sorrows & Promises: Greenwich Village in the 1960s with Marshall Crenshaw

Join singer-songwriter Richard Barone as he celebrates the music of the 1960s Greenwich Village folk music scene. Richard and his guests—journalists and musicians who were part of that vital community and its living legacy—will revisit that era with a series of multimedia discussions focusing on the singer-songwriters who helped shape the cultural and political landscape of New York, from Bob Dylan and Paul Simon to Janis Ian, Phil Ochs, and John Sebastian (of the Lovin’ Spoonful).

Moderated by Barone, the panels will include such participants as Rolling Stone contributing editor Anthony DeCurtis, A&R executive/writer Mitchell Cohen, Folk City author Stephen Petrus, producer Steve Addabbo, as well as musicians Marshall Crenshaw, The Kennedys and Allison Moorer—with more to be announced! They will sing classic songs and tell the behind-the scenes stories of that vibrant period in the music of downtown New York City.
