Geoff and Reggie: Songs of the earth, the heart and the spirit…
Two well-loved performers for a double bill concert and a special evening! Troubadour Geoff Kaufman’s music spurs us to care, both for the earth and for each other. Reggie Harris, a songwriter “of great passion,” merges a world-wise point of view with a singularly hopeful view that life, though challenging, is filled with possibility and hope. His songs consider life, love, history, world issues, the human experience and his own personal journey.
For 30 years, Geoff Kaufman has led his audiences to find truth, humor, and beauty in folk music. From ancient ballads, work songs and songs of love to poignant songs of people in struggle and humorous glimpses of human foibles, Geoff has touched audiences from New England to California to France to Poland… and more. Songs of the sea, songs of the earth, songs of the heart and the spirit – all of these are woven into Geoff’s ditty bag.
Reggie Harris is an innovative guitarist, a fearlessly creative vocalist, and an engaging storyteller. It’s clear to all that he deeply loves singing, but that’s not all. He is committed to music as a “community building vehicle.” Reggie’s music shares perspectives on issues of life, history, education and human rights. In the spirit of his mentors, Pete Seeger and Dr. Bernice Johnson Reagon (Sweet Honey in the Rock), Reggie is a master song leader who loves to help people discover that they can make a difference at any age, wherever they live.
