Chicago folk legend in Somerset March 18
SOMERSET KY - The 3rd Friday Folk series welcomes Chicago’s official troubadour Mark Dvorak to the Carnegie Community Arts Center on Friday, March 18 at 7:00 pm. The Center is located at 107 N. Main Street.
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.”
“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.”
“The 3rd Friday Folk Coffeehouse is our way of encouraging the resurgence our common musical tradition,” said director Joe LaMay. “We are quite aware of Mark Dvorak and his place in American folk music, and we’re thrilled that he will be joining us.”
General admission to the concert is $7. Reservations are suggested. To reserve a seat call or text 606 305 6741 or email 3rdfridayfolk@lamay.com.
