Seth Glier

November 18, 8:00 PM  -> $20

 

Seth Glier returns to the Circle of Friends Coffeehouse on Saturday, November 18th. He is a seasoned troubadour, a singer-songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist who averages over 250 live performances annually.  He's shared the stage with artists as diverse as James Taylor, Ani DiFranco, Edwin McCain, Martin Sexton, Emmylou Harris and Ryan Adams, and has quickly become known for his passionate live sets and powerful command of both piano and guitar. 

His new album "Everything" is a collection of eight songs inviting us to imagine a future in which humans and the planet are re-aligned into mutual restoration. The album is an acknowledgement of the sacred connections that exist between all living things and is an active questioning of what might be possible collectively. Everything is a reminder that the future is something we always have an influence over.

This show will sell out!

Called "the pre-eminent male singer-songwriter of the New Folk movement" by Rolling Stone, John Gorka possesses a commandingly beautiful baritone voice. His articulate guitar playing compliments his superb lyrics on songs that are romantic, cosmic, poetic, haunting in their imagery, or hilarious. Many well known artists have recorded and/or performed his songs, including Mary Chapin Carpenter, Nanci Griffith, Mary Black and Maura O'Connell. John has graced the stage of Austin City Limits, Mountain Stage, etown and has appeared on CNN.  http://johngorka.com/

 
"Gorka is widely heralded for the sophisticated intelligence and provocative originality of his songs." -The Boston Globe

Please be aware that John requires that all audience members be masked during the performance. Masks will be available at the door.
