Don Baker performing at CHS August 23

Don Baker, a local singer songwriter, will be performing at the CHS "coffee house" on Saturday, August 23rd , 1739 St. Mary's Ave. Parkersburg, Suite 3. Don is an accomplished singer songwriter, who participates in many of the songwriter events in the Mid Ohio Valley. His songs are excellent glimpses into everyday life, with a poetic eye for observation about the world around him, and human nature. Don has participated for several years in the John Prine birthday tributes/ benefits. This is how I connected with him; he saw the announcements a few years back, and has been a steady nice connection ever since. I always enjoy his contributions to the songwriter events, and he steadily is creating new songs. His song at the recent songwriter event in Marietta about the price of gas, comes right out of the Americana genre's best sentiments. His vocals and guitar work are solid, and you come away with a strong sense of his roots and values watching him perform.
