Celebrates 50 Years Of Music

Since Tom Rush s 1962 debut as an unknown folk-blues musician on the Boston/Cambridge music scene, he has established himself as a consummate performer and singer-songwriter well-known for his golden ears in discovering new talent.

To mark his five-decade career anniversary, Tom chose to revive his much missed annual Club 47 Series. He organized a holiday concert at Boston Symphony Hall in December 2012, playing his own set and hosting old friends (fellow Appleseed artists David Bromberg and Jonathan Edwards, Buskin & Batteau) and new (Dom Flemons of the Grammy-winning Carolina Chocolate Drops string band) as featured front-men and as backing musicians for himself and each other.

The highlights of this historic and delightful concert are now available on 'Celebrates 50 Years of Music,' where Tom displays his intimate, conversational baritone vocals, adept guitar-work, relaxed charm and droll humour in a program encompassing all phases of his career, punctuated by songs by his guests.
