John Gorka, a world-renowned singer-songwriter, got his start at a neighborhood coffeehouse in eastern Pennsylvania. His original multifaceted songs, full of depth, beauty, and emotion, have gained him an audience around the world.

A singer/songwriter famed for his rich, expressive baritone, New Jersey native John Gorka was one of the leading lights of the new folk movement that emerged in the mid-'80s. Gorka began his career while attending college in Pennsylvania in the early '80s, appearing at open-mike nights at a local coffeehouse before eventually forming his own group, the Razzy Dazzy Spasm Band. Soon he hit the road, performing up and down the eastern seaboard before finally settling in Texas and winning the Kerrville Folk Festival's prestigious New Folk Award.

Doors open at 7 pm.
