From Vancouver Island to the Arctic Circle, Arlo Guthrie is a native son! A singer, songwriter, and lifelong political activist, Arlo Guthrie carries on the legacy of his legendary father, Woodie Guthrie.
Growing up in the early sixties, Arlo spent time with musicians and beat poets, took it all in and developed his style. Arlo's expressive, distinctive voice and message is still ringing clear.
Arlo Guthrie is a natural-born storyteller, whose tales and anecdotes bring his concerts to life. CBC Radio 2 caught up with this icon of the 60's folk era, singing and telling stories at the Vancouver Island MusicFest, in Courtenay, B.C., before an adoring crowd that knew all the words.
