The Listening Room, in collaboration with Pulp Arts, brings a rare and special night to downtown Gainesville. Cult-favorite songwriter Robert Lester Folsom—whose long-lost 1976 album ‘Music and Dreams’ has found a whole new life—takes the stage amid a powerful resurgence, sounding as timeless and transportive as ever.
Joining him are Sun Child, delivering dreamy, salt-air folk from Jacksonville Beach, and Gainesville’s own Kevin PM, whose songs find beauty in the everyday and the overlooked.
Free, all-ages, and under the open sky. Come early, stay late.
