John McCutcheon Livestream Series — The Paxton-McCutcheon Project

Sunday, November 13 at 7:00 pm ET

For nearly two years John and Tom Paxton have been Zoom-writing songs every Monday afternoon. And, boy, have they come up with a catalog of amazing songs. Ukrainian Now, their anthem for Ukraine, was a Facebook viral hit, prompting Noel Stookey (the Paul of Peter, Paul, and Mary) to assemble an all-star folk music ensemble for a video that went around the world. But that was just the tip of the iceberg. From the humorous to the heartfelt, two of folk music’s iconic songwriters have teamed up and the result has been fun, powerful, and affirming. In fact, John’s next recording project will bring in not only these songs, but Tom Paxton himself.

Join John for an evening of unveiling a dozen or so brand new songs he and Tom Paxton have written, as well as a handful of Tom’s classic songs.

Zigue — Live at Old Songs

Friday, December 2 at 7:30 pm ET

Claude Méthé, Dana Whittle, and Mario St-Germain

Since 1992, Claude Méthé and Dana Whittle have performed, composed and shared everything musical. They are both dynamic singers and prolific composers in love with the Québécois trad-inspired music they make together.  Claude’s raw, emotional singing and authentic fiddling is seamlessly matched to the accompaniment of his longtime partner, herself a rhythmic and vocal powerhouse.

Sunday, December 11 at 7:00 pm ET

John’s classic album, Winter Solstice, is a constant on airwaves and home stereos every December. John will reprise a bunch of music from this album, offer some brand new songs, invite in a guest or two, and even lead a carol singalong!

Here’s a perfect way to close out 2022 and hoping for peace in the New Year.

Master guitarist, singer, and songwriter Archie Fisher is Scotland’s foremost troubadour. Archie was born in Glasgow into a large singing family, which yielded three professional singers—Archie and his sisters Ray and Cilla. Music was always in the house: his father’s appreciation of many musical styles (opera, vaudeville, and traditional ballads) proved to be a heavy influence on Archie’s own music, while his mother, a native Gaelic speaker from the Outer Hebrides, was a strong influence on the lyrical quality of his songwriting.
