Loudon Wainwright III and Chris Smither.
In concert.
Here’s a rare chance to see two venerable musicians.
It was the late 1960’s on Charles Street in Boston, outside one of the legendary clubs during the folk revival era, these two new-to-the-scene young musicians first met. They’ve stayed friends ever since with their paths crossing at folk festivals and concert halls and folk clubs. Over the years, the two have guest-appeared on each other’s record, Chris sang on “Somebody Else” for Loudon’s Older Than My Old Man Now record. Then Loudon lent a hand on Chris’ 50-year career retrospective recording Still on the Levee (singing on “What They Say”). Throughout the decades, they each have made their own individual and indelible mark on the contemporary singer-songwriter scene with Wainwright, known for his “Dead Skunk” song and Smither, known for “Love You Like A Man”. They have both recorded numerous albums and continue to tour as journeymen. Acting is also a common thread they share with Wainwright having been in many plays, TV shows, and movies including the hit TV show M.A.S.H and on Broadway Pump Boys and Dinettes. Smither recently made his acting debut in the short film The Singers. Their most recent recordings are Wainwright’s Live In London (2025) and Smither’s All About the Bones (2024).
