The Likes of Jeff Pittman
“Hello starling, little darling, mimicking inflections. Hello magpie, clever guy, admiring your reflection…”
Jeff Pittman is a folk singer-songwriter and storyteller whose style and delivery are borne of years spent entertaining in shed parties and community halls of his native Newfoundland. Coming from a long line of family poets and humorists, Pittman’s songs tell stories of time and place, ranging from pun-laden toe-tappers to quirky singalongs and heartfelt ballads.
Opening with:
Don Dunphy
An avid storyteller, Don includes traditional stories and recitations along with many original works in his repertoire. While most of his stories are delivered in the traditional manner, he often belts out a ballad or so and other stories told in song. It is important to note that half the lies he tells are not true.
