The Open Stage with Bob Franke

Songwriter Bob Franke will join Michelle on the Open Stage to discuss his upcoming SAW/BSA songwriting workshop and house concert the weekend of January 15-16. Bob has been offering his own brand of songwriting workshop for over 20 years and has garnered great respect, praise and gratitude from songwriters, as well as audiences, throughout the country. Bob's songs are considered classics worldwide and have been sung and recorded by hundreds of other performers, including John McCutcheon, Lui Collins, Kathy Mattea, Peter Paul & Mary, and many more. Tom Paxton has said of Bob, "It's his integrity. I always think of Bob as if Emerson and Thoreau had picked up acoustic guitars and gotten into songwriting."
