Come and enjoy a wonderful folk concert with Geoff Kaufman (see bio below)! Bring a friend!
For the past thirty years, Geoff Kaufman has been leading audiences to find truth, humor and beauty in folk music. Whether singing sailor songs at Mystic Seaport in Connecticut or environmental songs on board the Sloop Clearwater in the Hudson River; or in solo performances at coffeehouses throughout the U. S. to festivals in Europe, Geoff has entertained and touched audiences near and far.
Within Unitarian Universalist circles, Geoff has performed at General Assemblies in Boston, MA, Long Beach, CA and in Fort Worth, TX where he produced and performed in a concert with Pete Seeger, Kim & Reggie Harris, Emma's Revolution and Rev. Hope Johnson. While his songs of the Earth and the Spirit have led to performances from Maine, Florida and Hawai'i, Geoff is even better know for his maritime music, developed in part through twenty - eight years of singing and organizing music programs at Mystic Seaport. These threads and others are likely to be woven into Saturday's concert.
Above all, at the core of Geoff’s performance is his rich tenor voice, and an exuberant love of singing. And part of that love is to entice audiences to sing along, to share in the exhilaration of full-throated vocalization if they wish. In this age of electronic overload and passive media pabulum, Geoff likes to stress the “live” in live performance, promoting participation, be it by voice or heart or mind.
