Peterborough Folk Music presents Tom Rush in concert at The Park Theatre, 19 Main St. in Jaffrey, on Saturday, March 22, at 7 p.m. He will be accompanied by singer-songwriter Seth Glier.

Rush began performing in the early 1960s while a student at Harvard, playing Boston-area clubs, including the Club 47, where he developed his style and learned from established folk musicians. His early recordings introduced audiences to artists such as Joni Mitchell, Jackson Browne and James Taylor. He has influenced musicians across multiple genres, blending storytelling and guitar playing with traditional and modern influences.

Glier, a singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer, has been nominated for a Grammy Award. His music incorporates folk, pop and Americana influences. As a cultural diplomat for the U.S. State Department, he has collaborated with musicians in Ukraine, Mongolia, China and Mexico. He has toured internationally and shared the stage with artists such as James Taylor and Ani DiFranco.

Tickets are $50 online at theparktheatre.org and $60 at the door, cash or check only. Doors open at 6:15 p.m.
