Peace Fundraiser with David LaMotte

We are thrilled that David LaMotte will perform for the 2024 Peacemaking Scholarship fund on Saturday, November 16th. Members of the youth choirs will join him in select songs.
The Boston Globe writes that his music “pushes the envelope with challenging lyrics and unusual tunings, but he also pays homage to folk tradition,” while BBC Radio Belfast lauds his “charm, stories, humour, insightful songs, sweet voice and dazzling guitar ability.” His most recent album, Still, features the number one song on Folk Radio in September, 2022 (September Me), and the album remained in the top twenty for six months. He has been a featured performer at top tier music festivals including the Kerrville Folk Festival, Merlefest, the Auckland Folk Festival (NZ), and the Australian National Folk Festival. 

A freewill offering will be taken. Proceeds support the Chapel Hill-Carrboro Peacemaking Scholarship, which provides stipends to graduating seniors who aspire to a career in peacemaking.
