Joe Crookston is one of those rare artists who doesn’t just perform — he connects. A force of nature on stage, Joe blends blistering musicianship, sharp wit, and deep humanity into a live experience that’s equal parts joyful, funny, and quietly transcendent. A former Folk Alliance International Artist-in-Residence and recipient of FAI’s Album of the Year, he’s toured with legends like Gordon Lightfoot, Judy Collins, and Dar Williams, and his songs have even been adapted into award-winning films (Brooklyn in July, Blue Tattoo). Whether he’s fingerpicking, fiddling, or spinning stories that linger long after the last note, Crookston has a way of waking up even the most seasoned listeners.
This special engagement at the Buttonball Barn is a rare chance to experience Joe up close — the way his music is meant to be heard. His concerts are immersive, joyful, and unpredictable: one moment hilarious, the next deeply moving. He calls it “The Long Note” — that shared space where music, story, and audience come together. You can watch videos, but it won’t prepare you for the real thing. As one fan famously put it:
“I hate folk music… but I absolutely LOVE Joe Crookston.”
This is one of those nights you’ll talk about long after it’s over
