NORTH READING — The North Reading Community Coffeehouse continues its ninth season with Don White headlining its January Performing Artist Series.
A singer/songwriter, humorist and author, White has been bringing audiences to laughter and tears for 30 years. White’s arc has taken him from his industrial hometown of Lynn, across the country as hitchhiker, through Boston’s comedy clubs and coffeehouses, and onto the stage with greats like Arlo Guthrie, Taj Mahal, Ritchie Havens, Patty Larkin, Bill Morrissey, Tom Rush, Louden Wainright III, and Christine Lavin, with whom he toured for eight years across North America in a co-bill called “The Funny Side of the Street.”
To date, White has released 10 CDs, three live DVDs, and two books. He returns to the Activity Room of the Flint Memorial Library, 147 Park St., this Saturday, Jan. 25 at 7:30 p.m. (doors open at 7 p.m.) to relate his experiences as a husband, a father, a seeker, and a joker. There is a suggested donation of $20. Reserve your seat by emailing Nrcoffeehouse@gmail.com. Proceeds from refreshments sold during the show benefit the Friends of the Flint Memorial Library to help support library programs.
