An intimate conversation with a unique artist who has carved a special place in the folk pantheon of both the UK and the USA.
Now in her late 80s, Peggy’s light burns as brightly as ever. A multi-instrumentalist (piano, guitar, 5-string banjo, autoharp, English concertina and Appalachian dulcimer), she is lauded for her feminist and political songs and her co-creation of The Radio Ballads. She has made 24 solo recordings and participated in over a hundred more.
“Peggy Seeger’s life is the stuff of a rip-roaring blockbuster…an illuminating, witty, revelatory and unflinchingly candid account, presented in vivid vignettes and nonchalant anecdotes, often funny, sometimes shocking”’ Mojo Magazine
