“Here then is further proof of the fact that McCutcheon is not only a national treasure but an essential individual when it comes to passing a musical legacy forward towards the future. With those 43 albums behind him, one can only hope there are 43 more to come.” – AMERICAN SONGWRITER

“McCutcheon has delivered not just the folk album of the year, but one that will also win many hearts and minds.” – NO DEPRESSION

John McCutcheon has been delighting audiences with live performance and recordings for decades. The late Johnny Cash referred to him as “the most impressive multi-instrumentalist I ever heard.” In a McCutcheon show, along with storytelling and fun, listeners will hear this master musician play hammered dulcimer, banjo, piano, harmonica, guitar and more.

His recordings have garnered every imaginable honor including seven Grammy nominations. He has produced over twenty albums of other artists, from traditional fiddlers to contemporary singer-songwriters to educational and documentary works. His books and instructional materials have introduced budding players to the joys of their own musicality. McCutcheon’s commitment to grassroots political organizations has put him on the front lines of many of the issues important to communities and workers.
