Charlie Parr has been traveling around singing his songs ever since leaving Austin Minnesota in the 1980's in search of Spider John Koerner, whom he found about 100 miles north at the Viking Bar one Sunday night. The experience changed his life and brings us to now: 13 recordings, 250 shows a year or more, 200,000 miles on a well broke in Kia.
Please join us live on Saturday morning, October 28, at 9 for a morning of resonator fueled folk songs from Duluth Minnesota. We’ll play guitar, we'll have coffee, you at your place, we at mine, but here, online, together.
This activity is made possible in part by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
Our work is supported in part by the National Endowment for the Arts through a grant from the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council.

Hey Darin, maybe give Charlie a nice comfortable chair like you got lol, great show love listening to you

[@CoffeeandGuitarwithDarin]

I considered it, actually. I usually do give guests the comfy drum throne, but it's a little tall and I thought Charlie would prefer a lower, less swivelly seat. That little blue chair is great with a guitar in your lap, probably shoulda grabbed one for myself, too. Also, I should get another comfy drum throne! Thanks for listening!

I'd love to have Lou on the show sometime, but so far we haven't been able to work it out.
