Peggy Seeger's 25th and fnal solo album, to be released the month before
her 90th birthday, is a ftting tribute to over 70 years as a working musician,
feminist and activist
This is no apologetic or quiet farewell - she's going out with a thoughtful,
philosophical and very satisfying BANG. Peggy's voice and songwriting are still major
forces to be reckoned with. Nine brand new songs and two reinterpretations span the
pillars that have sustained her career. Written and recorded with family members -
established musician sons Neill and Calum (Calum also produced the album) and
daughter- in- law Kate St John - this album is sheer class, suffused with love and
respect.
There is so much to say about Peggy Seeger: a monumental fgure in folk music in the
UK and USA; a constant musical innovator (aged 77 she was a vocalist on dance
producer Broadcaster's Radio 1 Record of the Week); a style icon (designer Bella
Freud named a sweater after her); countless international awards; an active
campaigner on the environment, social and feminist issues; 25 solo albums and over
100 collaborative albums.
Peggy's 25- date concert tour of the UK and Ireland in May & June to support the
release of the album will be her very last. After the tour, Peggy will retire from
recording and live performance. The tour is expected to sell out well in advance. Full
promo campaign focussing on Peggy being unique in still recording and touring at the
age of 90, without compromising her beliefs and passions or the quality of her
songwriting.
Tracks: Sing About These Hard Times / I Want to Meet Paul Simon / Teleology / The
