Join the Lake County Folk Club for their August acoustic concert featuring Richard Gilewitz.

Never one to settle for the boring or mundane, Richard Gilewitz surprises his audiences with his hilariously eccentric vision of the world and its inhabitants alongside breathtaking fingerstyle artistry on the 6- and 12-string guitar. Named one of the top fingerstyle guitarists of all time, Richard invariably captivates listeners with uniquely emotional interpretations of romping knucklebusters and contemplative classical tunes reimagined for steel strings.

He credits his ability to pull the deepest breath out of a tune to having studied for decades with a classical guitarist, who was himself taught by a violinist who played alongside Albert Einstein. That is Richard in a nutshell…unusual, unique, surprising, and a genius.

Concert Opener: Pat Murphy

Doors open at 6:30 pm and the concert begins at 7:00 pm.
