Join us for a rip-roarin’ night of music and singing led by award-winning local songwriter, educator, and playwright Freddy Bradburn!
Woody Guthrie is the iconic songwriter of “This Land is Your Land,” originally a protest against Irving Berlin’s “God Bless America.” Woody is considered the father of modern protest music, directly influencing Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, and many others.
We will sing, celebrate, and discuss the songs and life of Guthrie whose songs are more relevant now than ever.
Freddy Bradburn taught communications, theater, and storytelling at McDowell Tech for more than 20 years. He is also an award-winning songwriter, mulit-instrumentalist, and member of the local trio The Happy Enchiladas. He has had two original musicals produced by the local theater. Presently, Freddy created and directs a youth string band that performs in the community.
