John Gorka
John Gorka, a folk music staple, played Sunday, March 3, at 7:30 p.m. at The Ark in Ann Arbor. His music has deepened over nearly four decades, perfect if you appreciate thoughtful folk songs.
John Gorka sparked the modern folk revival when he won the Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk award in 1984. His 1987 debut album, "I Know," showcased his striking baritone and songwriting that covers everything from love and sadness to everyday musings and political reflections. Nearly forty years later, John still calls himself an aspiring folksinger, with over 15 critically acclaimed albums proving his continual growth. Now touring less, his March 3 concert at The Ark was a special treat for fans.
