Guthrie junior due

Arlo in Ireland

In this section »

Some 40 years after Woodstock and Alice's Restaurant brought him to attention, Arlo Gurthrie is still going strong.

In recent years, Guthrie has continued to record. His most recent album, 32c Postage Due , was a collaboration with The Dillards and contains versions of 10 of his father Woody's songs.

Guthrie tours Ireland this month, visiting Cork's Cyprus Avenue (January 17th), Dublin's Whelan's (18th), Galway's Róisín Dubh (20th), Limerick's Dolan's (21st), Roscrea's Grant Hotel (23rd), Castlebar's Royal Theatre (24th), Culdaff's McGrory's (25th) and Belfast's Menagerie (26th).
