Over those four decades he also became nothing short of a folk music legend, writing a plethora of contemporary American classics that have been covered by the likes of Peter Paul & Mary, Makem & Clancy, Jerry Jeff Walker, Nanci Griffith and others.

He is our beloved New England Cowboy, a national treasure, a beautifully subtle left-handed guitarist, a singer and storyteller whose music tells the story of America from explorers in the Yukon to on-the-road truckers, young couples in love, and animals who sing.

He's guaranteed to warm hearts of any age and to get you singing along. Be there, bring your friends, family and grandkids, your voice -- and your "hands, or paws, or anything you got now"!
