Charismatic young singers and multi-instrumentalists return us to a time when music brought us together - when it changed us. Complete with period costumes and multimedia projections, this unforgettable concert event features romantic duets, patriotic songs, church hymns, union anthems and songs of protest, taking us from the 1920s to the 1960s and beyond- from the front porches of Appalachia to the nightclubs of San Francisco and New York - from the festival stages of Newport to the sound stages of Los Angeles. Songs like: "If I Had a Hammer," "Puff The Magic Dragon," "This Land is Your Land," "This Little Light of Mine," "Blowin' in the Wind", "Like a Rolling Stones", "Turn, Turn Turn", "American Pie", and "Hallelujah".
An inspiring evening of great music, Lonesome Traveler presents a revealing perspective of the roots forever embedded in our culture, bringing together audiences of all ages.
