Elizabethtown College's Bowers Writers House invites you to an evening of music and storytelling with American folk musician David Wilcox on Friday, Nov. 1 from 8-9:30 p.m. in the Masters Center's Gibble Auditorium at Elizabethtown College.The Ohio native with a warm baritone found his artistic muse in North Carolina during the mid-1980s and released his debut album, The Nightshift Watchman, in 1987. This led to winning the prestigious Kerrville Folk Festival in 1988 and a four-album stint with A&M Records, starting with 1989’s How Did You Find Me Here, which sold 100,000 copies by word of mouth.
Thirty-plus years and twenty-plus albums later, Wilcox won top honors in the 2018 USA Songwriting Competition for “We Make the Way by Walking” from his album The View From the Edge. Today, as he performs new songs from his latest album My Good Friends, Wilcox continues to earn admirers with his deep storytelling, which resonates with a dedicated core of fans and has received praise from major publications like The New York Times and Rolling Stone.
A limited number of free tickets are available for Etown students and employees. Pre-registration is required to attend. General admission tickets are also available for purchase by the community for $18.
