Last Saturday, Michelle Tuesday Music School celebrated our 15th anniversary with an open house. Thank you to our many guests and performers who helped make this day special – and welcome to our new students and families.
We can’t contain our excitement. It’s a great day!
Can’t wait to see you next time. We love the music.
Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, and Peter, Paul, and Mary are a few of the artists in this playlist.
While the roots of the American Folk Music Revival started in the 1930s and 1940s, many of the artists we’ve heard of followed The Kingston Trio. They topped the charts in 1958 and led to the creation of the Folk Music Category in 1959.
The American Folk Music Revival and the 1960s civil protests became intertwined, and that brought about changes in the American culture. Several artists marched on Washington with Martin Luther King, Jr. for his “I have a dream” speech. These included the artists listed above, plus Odetta and Harry Belafonte.
Where would we be without the American Folk Music Revival? Do you think we need another version for the 2020s?
Due to inclement weather, all lessons at Michelle Tuesday Music School will be virtual or rescheduled today, Monday, January 6th, 2025.
Stay safe, break out the sleds, and put on a crock of hot cocoa!
