for children and is a celebration of the power of music to bring people together, even in
challenging times. For complimentary tickets please RSVP at bit.ly/k-dec28.
The Washington Post called McCutcheon’s songwriting, “Storytelling with the richness of fine
literature,” While Pete Seeger said he was “One of our country’s best songwriters.” Associated
Press dubbed Steve Poltz "part busker, part Iggy Pop and part Robin Williams, a freewheeling
folkie with a quick wit and big heart.” V Magazine said Reisler’s songs “are as radio ready as a Mary
Chapin Carpenter performance and as true to life as a Harry Chapin composition.”
