IRENE YOUNG
John McCutcheon will perform in Princeton, April 25.
The Princeton Folk Music Society has announced its 2025 shows, which represent a season that will mark the organization’s 60th anniversary. Its roots actually go back further, with informal concerts before 1965, but 1965 is the date of its incorporation.
In its early years, concerts and monthly sings were held on the Princeton University campus, with events at other community locations taking place at well. Now the shows are at the Christ Congregation Church on Princeton’s Walnut Lane. All concerts are also livestreamed.
There is one more concert in 2024: David Roth on Dec. 13.
Here is the 2025 schedule.
Jan. 17: Mari Black
Feb. 21: Chris Smither
