Description
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, 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.
Songs of the sea, songs of the earth, songs of the heart and the spirit; ancient ballads, work songs and songs of love; songs of people in struggle, humorous glimpses of human foibles and insights into history. All of these are woven into of Geoff’s concerts.
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. 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.
