Tom Rush with Matt Nakoa & Cheryl Wheeler

  • The Birchmere Music Hall Mount Vernon Avenue Alexandria, VA, 22305 United States (map)

Tom Rush is a gifted musician and performer, whose shows offer a musical celebration…a journey into the tradition and spectrum of what music has been, can be, and will become. His distinctive guitar style, wry humour and warm, expressive voice have made him both a legend and a lure to audiences around the world. His shows are filled with the rib-aching laughter of terrific story-telling, the sweet melancholy of ballads and the passion of gritty blues.

Cheryl Wheeler is a Massachusetts-based singer-songwriter of contemporary folk music. She has recorded thirteen folk albums to date and has toured extensively throughout the United States since the mid-1970s. Heralded as a “folk luminary, ” an “unassuming folk star, ” and a “folk diva, ” Wheeler is known for her well-crafted songs, stellar vocals, and witty on-stage patter.
