Sunday, October 5, 2025, 2 pm to 4 pm – NEW LOCATION
The Linden Tree Concert 41st Season will continue on Sunday, October 5, with the often humorous, often clever singer-songwriter CHRISTINE LAVIN.
Christine Lavin has been called the Folk World’s long-reigning Queen of the Intelligently Absurd. The title of one of her earlier albums, “I Don’t Make This Stuff Up, I just Make it Rhyme,” says it all. Christine Lavin is a singer/songwriter/guitarist/recording artist/author/videographer who has been based in New York City since 1976. Her latest album, her 25th, ON MY WAY TO HOOTERVILLE, includes 10 new songs and one re-worked song, “Ramblin’ Waltz,” a re-telling of her time in 1975 when she was one of the entourage drivers for the first week of the tour of The Rolling Thunder Revue.
Christine has an eye for the ironic and the absurd in the news and everyday life, and puts it into song. She dresses it all up in skillful guitar work, electronic loops, and wonderful gimmicks. She has won numerous awards for her songwriting and her book, COLD PIZZA FOR BREAKFAST: A MEM-WHA??. Supportive of other songwriters she admires, Christine has produced ten compilation, showcasing 100 songwriters. Her song AMOEBA HOP, a science music book illustrated by Betsy Franco, received a “Best Book Award” from the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
