Singer-songwriter Doug Mishkin has just released his third album, “Tip of the Spear.” Doug is best known for “Woody’s Children,” his song celebrating the legacy of Woody Guthrie. Doug says he was “born the night my mother took me to my first Pete Seeger concert” and then “came of age at the campfire where I first heard the songs of Tom Paxton, Phil Ochs, Peter Paul & Mary and the rest of that crew. Those songs spoke to me—and they still do.”
Doug’s music flows from that tradition. The title cut of “Tip of the Spear” is an appeal from God to the human race. That new album includes “If They’d Been Black,” a song about January 6th; “Reading Names (George Floyd); and “Save Your Prayers,” a song about gratitude, empathy and people who lack both.
Doug’s musical interests range wide. He pleads guilty to being under the influence of the great lyricist Yip Harburg (“The Wizard of Oz,” “Finian’s Rainbow,” “Brother Can You Spare A Dime” and many others). You’ll hear that influence on his latest album in songs like “Smitten” and “Our Cardiac Condition.”
Doug’s songs are also personal—whether about love remembered (“Suite: Sweet Sycamore Street”), friends lost (“Pour Me Another Year”), the joy of grandparenthood discovered (“Who Knew” and “The Delicious Part”) or of being home at last (“Egremont”).
Doug has previously recorded two albums, “Woody’s Children” (1986) and “Climbing That Ladder” (2008). On the latter, Doug recorded Peter Yarrow’s “Sweet Survivor” accompanied by Peter, with whom Doug has performed. Yarrow wrote: “[T]his version of ‘Sweet Survivor’ …is one of the most beautiful I’ve ever heard. I’m most proud to have recorded it with him.”
Doug’s music has brought him accolades from some of our most distinguished folksinger-songwriters:
Tom Paxton: “Doug Mishkin gets what folk music is all about and he passes it along with energy and humor. He is a splendid and engaging performer. You will love him.”
