“A Dylan, Seeger, and Newport book talk with lots of musical examples….”
Musician, writer, and music critic Elijah Wald, who has long-time connections to Woods Hole, will perform music, and talk about his latest book, Dylan Goes Electric! (Newport, Seeger, Dylan and the Night That Split the Sixties.) In the book, Wald explores the cultural, political, and historical context of this “seminal event that embodies the transformative decade that was the sixties.”
After a brief intermission, Wald and his wife, Sandrine Sheon, will perform together, he on guitar and vocals, she on clarinet, offering “an eclectic mix of jazz, blues, country, ragtime, folk, and the occasional Swahili oldie.”
Copies of Mr. Wald’s Dylan book will be available for purchase.
Doors will open at 7 pm.
Ticket price: $25.
Proceeds benefit the Woods Hole Public Library.
Tickets can be purchased on-line, at the Library during regular hours, at Eight Cousins, the Bank of Woods Hole, and at the door.
