Formed in Beacon NY on what would have been the 100th birthday of Woody Guthrie, Guthrie’s Ghost is comprised of three separate entities that combine each year for a special tour in celebration of the folk traditions that have given us the music of Pete Seeger, Woody Guthrie and others that followed. Members include Fred Gillen Jr. (http://www.fredgillenjr.com/) and Steve Kirkman (http://www.stevekirkman.com) together called Hope Machine – a duo who were officially endorsed by the Guthrie Foundation 100th Year Celebration, Jacob and David Bernz (http://www.jacobbernz.com/) who perform as a father-son duo (Jacob is one of the Valley’s most prolific young songwriters and David is a two-time Grammy award-winning producer for Pete Seeger) and Hudson Valley singer/songwriter Julie Corbalis (https://juliecorbalis.com/). Together, they offer modern versions of songs from the great folk catalog and original songs in the trajectory.
