Fifty years ago Creedence Clearwater Revival was the hottest selling band in the world, supplanting even the Beatles in 1969 and becoming one of the most beloved bands in the history of rock.

CCR was powered by their lead guitarist and Grammy winning songwriter John Fogerty, a master of infectious melodies, powerful song structuring and evocative lyrics.

Sing, clap and dance along with us to the familiar sounds of Proud Mary, Have You Ever Seen the Rain, Don’t You Wish It Was True, Midnight Special, Down on the Corner, Fortunate Son, and many more.

Bruce Springsteen described Fogerty creating “a world of childhood memory...a landscape of swamps, bayous, endless rivers...back porches, hound dogs chasing ghosts, and bad moon rising straight out of the blues tradition.” With a series of albums chock-full of hit songs, Creedence virtually owned the US Billboard Top 40 in ‘69 and the early 70s.

Family Folk Chorale is the Boston area’s premier intergenerational chorus, led by award-winning Artistic Director Chris Eastburn and backed by some of Boston’s most versatile musicians, including Gary Backstrom on guitars; Jonah Backstrom on drums; Paul Hatem on guitar; and Quinn Eastburn on fiddle and keyboard.

Family Folk Chorale concerts are described by audience members as a musical ‘experience’ or ‘happening’ that hails to a time when live music was part of the daily fabric of home and community.

These concerts are perfect for people of all ages – we provide lyrics, opportunities to sing and dance along, refreshments, and a floor seating area up front for young children.
