Tom Chapin
Artist's Website: Tom Chapin
In a career that spans six decades, 27 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, concert performer, storyteller and activist, heʼs performed on Broadway and worked extensively in television, radio and film.
Through it all, Tom never stopped writing smart, thoughtful, funny and beautiful songs for the
folk audience, and Hold Our Ground is his 14th album in the genre. Created with the help and talents of old friends like longtime band mates Jon Cobert and Michael Mark, his harmonizing daughters Lily and Abigail, and co-writers Si Kahn, John Forster, John McCutcheon, and Scott Ainslie. “At 77, Tom Chapin is at the top of his game...an album that is warm, wise, whimsical, and anthemic -- and very right for our times.” John Platt, host of “Sunday Supper” on WFUV-FM, Bronx, NY
“One of the great personalities in contemporary folk music.” - New York Times
