Man of his word: For Danny Schmidt, it’s personal. All he needs is his husky vocals, lyric-driven songs, and an acoustic guitar to deliver gut-wrenching messages on issues of our time. Whether addressing police brutality or the grief of a miscarriage, Schmidt embodies a deep vulnerability and touching humility that draws listeners in. After breaking onto the C’ville music scene in the early aughts, the Texas-based Schmidt made a name for himself nationally, including a mention in the Chicago Tribune as one of the 50 most significant folk songwriters of the last 50 years.
Sunday 9/19, $15-18, 7pm. The Front Porch, 221 Water St. E., frontporchcville.org.
