Born and raised in the Chicago area, folk singer-songwriter Mark Dvorak has spent over three decades on the road, performing and recording. For over thirty years he was an integral member of the faculty at Chicago’s venerable Old Town School of Folk Music.
Through song and story “The Traveling Folk Song” recounts Dvorak’s long journey through music and teaching, which began with learning songs from his family, to taking guitar classes at the Old Town School to embarking on a career which would take him across the country learning and writing new songs all the while. Accompanied by guitar, 5-string banjo and 12-string guitar, the program reflects on our common musical heritage.
