Tom Paxton’s career has taken him all over the world. He’s played the coffeehouses of Greenwich Village to Carnegie Hall to the Albert Hall in London — not to mention Abbot Hall in Marblehead! He’s been performing since 1960; some of his most memorable songs are “The Last Thing on My Mind,” “Bottle of Wine,” “The Marvelous Toy,” and “Ramblin’ Boy.” Paxton’s song repertoire grew as he became known for his songs about environmental issues like “Whose Garden Was This” and satirical songs like “I’m Changing My Name to Chrysler” and “Forest Lawn.”

Tom’s shows with the Don Juans have kept him on his toes. He says, “These guys are long-ball hitters and if I don’t want to get smoked, I’d better do a little rehearsing. I probably need to do that anyway,” he says, laughing. “It probably couldn’t hurt.” Jon Vezner is a Nashville-based tunesmith of rare sensitivity and dry wit. Hes’s been voted Songwriter of the Year by the Nashville Songwriters Association International. Don Henry lives in Music City as well and has received Grammys as well as the Academy of Country Music.

• Tom Paxton’s songs are so powerful and lyrical, written from the heart and the conscience, and they reach their mark, our most inner being. He writes stirring songs of social protest and gentle songs of love, each woven together with his personal gift for language. His melodies haunt, his lyrics reverberate. Judy Collins
• Thirty years ago Tom Paxton taught a generation of traditional folksingers that it was noble to write your own songs, and like a good guitar, he just gets better with age. Guy Clark

• Jon Vezner writes about the details, the details of our hearts and feelings. His gift is in speaking to these ordinary things which connect us to one another. And in recognizing their simple beauty, he transforms them into something extraordinary. Mary Chapin Carpenter
