Tom Rush 
Playing 
The Kent Stage
November 22
 

Folk music legend Tom Rush will bring his distinctive voice, masterful acoustic guitar playing and engaging storytelling to the Kent Stage on Sunday, November 22. A key figure in the 1960s folk revival, Rush helped introduce audiences to the music of future stars including James Taylor, Joni Mitchell and Jackson Browne. His influence on generations of singer-songwriters has been widely recognized, with Taylor citing Rush as one of his early heroes. Blending traditional folk, acoustic blues and contemporary songwriting, Rush has built a career on performances that combine heartfelt ballads, gritty blues and the kind of dry humor that makes his concerts feel like an intimate conversation with an old friend.

​

Fans can look forward to an evening that celebrates Rush’s remarkable musical journey, with the possibility of hearing beloved songs such as “The Circle Game,” “No Regrets,” “Urge for Going” and “Who Do You Love?” His repertoire also includes “Merrimack County” and “Ladies Love Outlaws,” showcasing his ability to bring other songwriters’ material to life while putting his own distinctive stamp on every performance. With decades of experience on stages around the world, Rush remains a compelling performer whose concerts connect folk music’s rich traditions with its continuing evolution.
