Tom Chapin Concert Evening - VIRTUAL EVENT
We are celebrating our 35th Anniversary with a special concert - our first virtual concert event - with Tom Chapin!
In a career that spans six decades, 26 albums and three GRAMMY awards, Hudson Valley Troubadour Tom Chapin has covered an incredible amount of creative ground. In addition to his work as a recording artist and concert performer, Chapin has acted on Broadway, as well as working extensively in television, radio and film.
As a music-maker, the multi-talented singer/songwriter/guitarist has maintained two long and productive parallel careers, both as a highly respected contemporary folk artist and as a pioneer in the field of children's music. In both roles, Chapin has established a reputation for insightful, heartfelt songcraft and effortlessly charismatic live performances. He continues to engage the hearts, minds and imaginations of young listeners with witty, life-affirming original songs delivered in a sophisticated array of musical styles. In either format, Chapin's infectious songs, sterling musicianship and personal warmth consistently shine through, whether he's performing on record or in a concert hall, an outdoor festival, a school, in front of a symphony orchestra or in an intimate coffeehouse. Chapin is a powerful advocate on behalf of a variety of charitable causes. He is a board member of WhyHunger, the organization which the artist's older brother, the late singersongwriter/activist Harry Chapin, founded (as World Hunger Year) in the 1970s. He also remains active in a variety of environmental causes, as well as efforts on behalf of music and the arts in our public schools.
"I'm at that place in my life where I follow what interests me," Chapin concludes. "I still love the guitar, I still love to sing, and I still love the thrill of creation: a good song, a good recording, a good concert. I feel blessed to be my own boss, creating my own material and performing for so many different audiences, ages and generations."
We are doing a virtual event this year because of concerns over COVID safety. It's been a tough couple of years, and even though we remain closed for live music events, we are just thrilled that we are able to present Tom and his music through the wonders of modern technology! Remember that we are in Phoenix, Arizona, so check your time zone to be sure that you check in at the right time. Please join us in celebrating 35 years of music and community in 2022!
