John Gorka returns to Nisswa Friday for a Grassroots Concerts performance at 7:30 p.m. in the Live Well Nightclub and Coffee Bar.
After his 1987 Red House release “I Know” introduced Gorka to the public, his wit and honesty have made him one of the most beloved artists currently carrying on the folk tradition.
A native of New Jersey, Gorka started his career in the 1970s at Godfrey Daniels, a neighborhood coffeehouse in eastern Pennsylvania.
He now lives in Minnesota and he enjoys spending time with his wife and children.
In addition to his 11 critically acclaimed albums, John released a collector’s edition box featuring a hi-definition DVD and companion CD called “The Gypsy Life.” Windham Hill released a collection of John’s greatest hits from the label “Pure John Gorka.”
This will be his eighth appearance in the nonprofit Grassroots Concerts series.
