Chicago folk legend in Ludlow for concert, workshop March 19
LUDLOW KY - The Folk School Coffee Parlor, 322 Elm Street, welcomes Chicago’s official troubadour Mark Dvorak for a concert and workshop on Saturday, March 19.
When the singer-songwriter began his career in music, he knew right away he was in it for the long haul. Thirty-four years later, “Back Home,” his latest release on Ten Fingers, marks an important milestone.
“At this stage of the game,” said Dvorak, “I feel like I’m doing my best work. ‘Back Home’ has a lot of variety and is a sampling of what I like to do before a live audience.”
Of the ten tracks on the disc, three of them were recorded live in 2012. It features a spoken word essay, “North Platte, Nebraska,” and two new original songs, “Pueblo, Colorado” and “Old Friends.”
“This is the first project where I did everything myself,” he said. “I arranged all the material and played all the instruments. I took all the photographs, except one, and designed the jacket.”
The workshop, “Acoustic Guitar Styles” takes place at 3:00 pm with a registration fee of $20. Admission to the evening concert is $5.
“He’s the real deal,” said Bau Graves, Executive Director of Chicago’s Old Town School of Folk Music. ”Mark has made music his life and livelihood. He’s been a top faculty member at the school for more than twenty-five years. His performances are elegant, rich and powerful.”
“Our mission is to build community through music and art,” said Coffee Parlor director Chris Campbell. "We’re thrilled that Mark has found us and excited to be presenting him."
