Folk legend Pete Seeger would have turned 100 this year and to celebrate, musician John McCutcheon released his 40th album which pays tribute to Seeger’s work. I sat down with McCutcheon to talk about this exciting project as well as many other subjects in this video feature. I'm not the narrator of this story, but I wrote, produced and edited the feature. In this story, you will see how McCutcheon is beyond the master of the guitar, banjo and dulcimer. He is a truly gifted singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist.


On Sunday, May 5, McCutcheon celebrated Pete Seeger’s 100th birthday at the Red Clay Music Foundry.
