The John McCutcheon series will continue on Sunday, March 19 with “The Women Who Made Me”. This concert will bring songs and stories of several women who have guided McCutcheon’s music, including Jean Ritchie, Ola Belle Reed and Hazel Dickens.  He will bring some special guests to this online event.

Romantic love may not be as common a theme for McCutcheon as conflict, seasons, children or baseball, but his 43 albums since the 1970s hold many fine love songs.  Lend an ear to Waltz ‘Round the Kitchen, about love grown familiar; Tallahassee Waltz, about a first embrace; Old People in Love, on enduring ardor; and Along Came You, about loving a grandchild.  In Saturday’s concert, he will celebrate suitors’ serenades, but also love of family, community and country.
