Woodstock Square
12:30 p.m. to 6 p.m.

Bob Franke (1:15 pm) - Bob began his career as a singer-songwriter in 1965 while still in college, and since then has been playing at coffeehouses, colleges, festivals, bars, streets, homes and churches across the U.S., Canada and England. Bob Franke (rhymes with “Yankee”) is at the peak of his considerable craft; brimming with the wise and spiritually generous songs for which he is best known, along with wrenchingly convincing topical songs and sugared with the hilarious. As Tom Paxton says, "It's his integrity. I always think of Bob as if Emerson and Thoreau had picked up acoustic guitars and gotten into songwriting. There's touches of Mark Twain and Buddy Holly in there, too."

Bob will also be presenting a songwriting workshop at 2:15 pm at the Stage Left Café.
