This Saturday: A Tribute to Jim Croce



null

REMEMBERING A PHILADELPHIA LEGEND

null

FRIENDS & FAMILY OF JIM CROCE CELEBRATE HIS LIFE - AND MUSIC - 40 YEARS AFTER HIS TRAGIC DEATH

nullJim Croce wasn't just a prolific singer/songwriter and one of Philadelphia's most famous performers...he was a really 
great guy. 

His friends and family are passionate about keeping his memory - along with the memory of his lead guitarist Maury Muehleisen - and their music alive.


Several of Jim's friends who worked and collaborated with him - along with members of his family - will share stories between performances by the preeminent tribute band, "Maggie's Guitar."  The evening opens with a performance by the Villanova Spires, the a cappella group Jim sang with during his days as a student of Villanova University
.

Folk authority Gene Shay will emcee.

WHY are people traveling as far as Canada, Rhode Island, and Georgia to attend the Tribute?

Hosted by Folk Music Authority
Gene Shay
Founder and original emcee of the Philadelphia Folk Festival, Gene has been deemed "The Dean of American Folk DJs" by the Philadelphia Daily News and "the Grandfather of Philadelphia Folk Music" by the Philadelphia Inquirer.



Saturday night!
SEPTEMBER 21st
7:30 pm

Upper Darby Performing Arts Center

Tickets:
$17 - $20

Proceeds benefit the Upper Darby Arts & Education Foundation where a scholarship in Croce's name has been established.
(Jim Croce graduated from UD High School in 1960)

Tickets WILL be available at the door.


Driving 10 hours to pay tribute to a gifted singer/songwriter we lost far too early is not an imposition. It is a way that I can learn more about his real home; tell others about his time in Canada; and, help support the programs at Upper Darby High School. 

-Lynn Armstong,
Traveling from Canada to attend Tribute
