Noel Paul Stookey, who recently celebrated his 86th birthday and his 65th year as a recognized activist singer/songwriter, has been altering both the musical and ethical landscape of this country and the world for decades, both as the “Paul” of the legendary Peter, Paul and Mary and as an independent musician who passionately believes in bringing the spiritual into the practice of daily life. He has recorded over fifty albums, both as part of the legendary trio and as a soloist.

With the recent death of Peter Yarrow and the 2009 death of Mary Travers, Noel is now the only living member of that trio. While acknowledging his history and the meaningful association with Peter and Mary, the trio perhaps best known for its blend of modern folk music and social activism, rallying support for safe energy, peace, and civil rights at some of the most iconic events in our history, including the 1963 March on Washington with Martin Luther King, Jr., Noel has stepped beyond the nostalgia of the folk era.

Funny, irreverently reverent, thoughtful, compassionately passionate, Noel’s voice is known across this land, from the Wedding Song to In These Times. Nearly two million dollars, earned from his now-classic Wedding Song, were used to fund the work of other socially responsible artists, which inspired Noel in 2018, along with his daughter Liz Stookey Sunde, to launch Music to Life, a national nonprofit that connects socially conscious musicians with the training, resources, and mentorship they need to realize their bold visions for community change.

“Stookey is the same brilliant impressionist, the same gangling comedian, and the same smooth vocalist he has always been. But outside of the group, (PPM), that made him famous, his versatility has expanded.”~ Salem Evening News

Kevin Roth has been performing on our stage for years, and collaborating with Noel Stookey even longer. His career has taken him to a concert and symphony stages around the world, to festivals, radio, television shows, and two appearances at the White House. He will sing some songs with his rich baritone and play some tunes on his deviant dulcimer.
