John Gorka


John Gorka notes, “Life is not fair and love is not enough, but it is the only thing worth pursuing.”

His songs, rich with depth, beauty and emotion, have gained international attention. Stone describes him as “the preeminent male singer songwriter of the new folk movement,” while the Boston Globe notes his “sophisticated intelligence and provocative originality.”

Concert 7:30 p.m. on Friday, May 15!
