Description
Arlo Guthrie was born in 1947 with a guitar in one hand and a harmonica in the other. He grew up surrounded by musicians: Pete Seeger, Ronnie Gilbert, Fred Hellerman and Lee Hays (The Weavers), Leadbelly, Cisco Houston, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, Sonny Terry and Brownie McGee, all of whom were significant influences on Arlo’s musical career. At age 13, Arlo gave his first public performance and quickly became involved in the music that was shaping the world during the 1960s.

Over the last four decades Guthrie has toured throughout North America, Europe, Asia and Australia winning a wide, popular following. In addition to his accomplishments as a musician, playing the piano, six and twelve-string guitar, harmonica and a dozen other instruments, Arlo is a natural-born storyteller, whose tales and anecdotes figure prominently in his performances. Recently, Arlo created "An American Scrapbook," a program of symphonic arrangements of his own songs and other American classics.

Since 1998, Arlo has performed over 40 concerts with 27 different symphony orchestras throughout the US. The performance at Boston’s Symphony Hall, conducted by Keith Lockhart, was recorded and aired on PBS’ "Evening at Pops". The 4th of July celebration in 2001 with the Pops attracted an audience of over 750,000 people and was broadcast live by A&E.
