Jerry Popiel: Songs of the 70s

Live at the Library continues its celebration of 250 years of American music by revisiting the decades each month. Jerry Popiel will take us back to the 1970s, exploring the high-water mark of classic singer/songwriters, performing hits and deeper cuts from the era’s luminaries such as James Taylor, Cat Stevens, Jim Croce, Simon & Garfunkel, Gordon Lightfoot, Dan Fogelberg, America and more. During that era, insightful folk-rock lyrics and inspired melodies ruled the airwaves in a way that later artists largely have not. Performed in an intimate solo acoustic guitar setting, Jerry brings those songs to life in an authentic and vibrant way. This program is free. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis.
