SUMMARY:Glen Phillips of Toad The Wet Sprocket
DESCRIPTION:Glen Phillips is the lead singer and main songwriter for the band Toad the Wet Sprocket\, which he joined when he was only 14. In the words of James Christopher Monger\, “Phillips has matured into . . . a quiet storm that dutifully blends Cat Stevens’ confident huskiness and Jackson Browne’s weary but warm observer of all things broken.” Of Glen’s album\, “Swallowed by the New\,” Chris Steffen of Allmusic.com writes\, “Songs like ‘Leaving Old Town’ and ‘Unwritten’ explicitly describe moving beyond the past and into the unknown.” Now signed to the acoustic-oriented Compass label\, Glen Phillips has evolved into one of the great folk-rock songwriters of our time\, still staying true to his Toad-like roots\, and The Ark is the place to hear him! Of his latest album\, “There Is So Much Here.” Glen says\, “I’ve seldom allowed myself to stay in one place for very long. I was lucky during the COVID lockdown to move in with my girlfriend\, now fianceé\, and to stay home for the longest stretch I’ve had since the birth of my daughter\, 20 years ago. After a life of travel and seeking out peak experiences\, I began to appreciate the subtle beauty of sitting still.” \nSinger-songwriter Chris Pureka opens.

SUMMARY:Josh Ritter
DESCRIPTION:The Ark helped spread Josh Ritter’s name among Michigan audiences when he made a standout performance at the Ann Arbor Folk Festival in 2003\, and we’re proud that we\, along with Emmylou Harris and Paste magazine\, which named Josh one of the 100 greatest living songwriters in 2006\, spotted this monster talent in the making. Josh has gone on to record a dozen albums\, write a book or two\, tour with Jason Isbell\, and play much larger halls than The Ark. So it’s very special to us to invite Josh to perform in a rare small club appearance. He’s an entrancing performer\, a true master of the songwriter’s art. This is a special Works In Progress + Songs You Know solo show. Says Josh: “I’ve realized that a necessary part of working on records is finding the material that hangs together. I write A LOT of songs\, and not all of them play nicely with the others. The most useful (and fun) way to find a song’s heart is to periodically play some shows where I’m able to get it all out there and see how I feel about them. I’m really looking forward to these shows for the chance to get all these songs\, and some that are old friends\, out on the table for a good time.”
