Dar Williams has appeared on PBS Friday nigh specials. She's keeping the folk tradition going. Also appearing at the concert I attended was a girl Stacey Earle, who I thought was the show stealer, though I haven't heard any more lately.

Oh, but back to Dar. According to her bio she often plays a Joan Baez limited edition Martin when in concert. I didn't know Joan had a guitar line. If you like Joni Mitchell, you would like Dar. She writes songs as well as interprets others'.
