Berkeley, California
If you’ve ever been moved by the words and music of the late Utah Phillips, you won’t want to miss this stirring tribute, featuring Utah’s son Duncan Phillips, California banjo sweetheart Erin Inglish, folk duo Misner & Smith, singer-songwriter Joe Stevens, Ben Pearl, and Nell Robinson & Jim Nunally. It seems fitting to have this event at the best acoustic concert hall in the Bay Area - The Freight & Salvage.
“Yes, the long memory is the most radical idea in this country,” Utah once said. “It is the loss of that long memory which deprives our people of that connective flow of thoughts and events that clarifies our vision, not of where we’re going, but where we want to go.”
