GARDINER — At 7:30 p.m. Friday Aug. 23, Johnson Hall Performing Arts Center in Gardiner will present an evening with legendary singer-songwriter Jonathan Edwards.

This is one veteran performer who is neither grizzled nor nostalgic. These days Edwards, a vital and relevant artist in today’s folk and Americana scenes, is most likely to be found on the road with longtime accompanist Stuart Schulman on bass, piano, fiddle, and vocals and Taylor Armerding, formerly of Northern Lights, on mandolin and high-tenor vocals.

An artist who measures his success by his ability to attract and take good care of an audience for four decades, Edwards maintains that it is the feedback he receives after his shows that keeps him going. “It is really gratifying to hear (someone say), ‘Your stuff has meant a lot to me over the years.’”

Tickets are $28 for all seats. Doors will open at 7 p.m. Call the box office at 207- 582-7144.
