The Power of Song for Justice: A Tribute to Peter, Paul & Mary
Voices Cafe is delighted to present a tribute to the iconic folk musicians, Peter, Paul & Mary, on Saturday May 10th at 8pm. Performing this tribute concert are The Kennedys, Mustard’s Retreat, and Suzanne Sheridan, all returning to Voices Cafe for this special tribute evening of legendary music.
The term “folk music” has become interchangeable with Peter, Paul & Mary. In 1962, with the nation still recovering from the McCarthy era, the civil rights movement taking shape, the Cold War heating up, and a nascent spirit of activism in the air, Peter Yarrow, Noel (Paul) Stokey and Mary Travers came together to foster folk music’s potency as a social, cultural and political force.
This concert brings together some of our current era’s most talented folk artists, Peter and Maura Kennedy, Mustard’s Retreat’s David Tamulevich and Libby Glover, and Weston native Suzanne Sheridan, sharing their experiences through song, bringing alive once again the power of song for justice.
This concert is on Saturday, May 10th. Doors open at 7:30pm, with showtime at 8:00pm. Tickets and information are available at voicescafe.org. General admission is $30 per ticket.
Voices Cafe offers a BYO setting with a choice of coffee-house style seating at tables or individual seating, and guests are welcome to bring their own beverages and snacks. Groups of four or more can reserve table space.
Voices Cafe concerts support social justice programs in our local community and are presented at The Unitarian Universalist Congregation in Westport at 10 Lyons Plains Road, Westport CT.
