Evening with Ronny Cox

Ronny Cox Storyteller, Singer songwriter, and Actor..
The Linden Tree 35th season of acoustic music continues on Saturday, Oct. 19th at 8pm with a return visit from storyteller, singer, songwriter, and actor Ronny Cox.

Ronny Cox’s Wikipedia entry describes him as an actor, singer-songwriter and storyteller, but as far as he’s concerned, it’s the other way around. “Singing Storyteller” definitely comes first. That becomes evident as soon as he starts reeling off bits of his history, delivering one fascinating anecdote after another about his music career, his myriad stage and screen roles, and even his lengthy marriage to his high-school sweetheart, the only girlfriend he ever had.

In concert, using nothing more than the power of his projected words, Ronny captivates listeners with all kinds of stories. Some are spoken; some are sung. But either way, he’s employing that age-old art form to forge connections he says he can’t as an actor. Ronny is often recognized for appearances in Deliverance, RoboCop, Beverly Hills Cop, Dexter, St. Elsewhere, and recently in Nashville’s final season. However Ronny’s many recordings made him an award winning socially responsible singer-songwriter, in 2018 winning Best American Roots Song for “Bus to Baltimore” about Alzheimer’s disease.
