Unsung Heroes and Untold Stories of the Village Folk Scene

Live at Café Wha?

Long before Dylan electrified Newport and folk-rock became a cultural phenomenon, Greenwich Village was already humming with voices, stories, and songs that rarely made the headlines—but shaped a generation. In the smoky cafés and crowded clubs of MacDougal Street, artists like Fred Neil, Karen Dalton, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Pat Sky, Tim Hardin, Bonnie Dobson, Richie Havens, and Dave Van Ronk gave birth to a sound and spirit that redefined American music.

This special evening pays tribute to the lesser-known figures and forgotten moments that fueled the Greenwich Village folk revival—casting new light on the songs, friendships, and creative collaborations, both iconic and overlooked, that made the scene thrive.
