Bob Norman will
join May 13 Song & Story Swap
Please come share in an evening of music and stories at the May
Pioneer Valley Folklore
Society SONG & STORY SWAP.
Friday, May 13,
7:30-9:30 p.m. at the Black Sheep Café, 79 Main
St., Amherst, Mass.
Guest performer this month will be multi-faceted folk musician
Bob Norman.
Bob Norman’s gentle wit, intricate guitar and harmonica
work, and passionate singing have charmed folk audiences across the
country for more than 25 years. The roster of artists who have performed
Bob Norman's songs is a diverse group which includes folk great Pete
Seeger, blues and gospel singer Eric Bibb and Argentinian poet Bernardo
Palombo. Says the Princeton Packet: “His songs and voice are
warm and inviting, autobiographical but universal; they celebrate life’s
simple pleasures while tackling bigger issues.”
Bob is former editor of Sing Out!, the folk song magazine.

The warm-up theme this month is
