David Wilcox

Club Passim | Friday, November 7, 2025 | Doors: 7PM / Show: 8PM

There are songwriters who chronicle life; David Wilcox metabolizes it.

He has long been a quiet force in American folk music – a musician’s musician, a writer’s writer, and a seeker whose gift lies in making the personal feel universal.

With The Way I Tell the Story (2025), Wilcox proves that resilience isn’t just a survival skill—it’s an art form.

The music he’s creating now comes from a place that can’t be faked.

In recent years, Wilcox’s life has been shaped by his wife’s Parkinson’s diagnosis, redefining his sense of time, love, and presence.

“Times get tough, and music gets good,” he says, and means it.

In 1989, Wilcox‘s How Did You Find Me Here became an unexpected hit, selling over 100,000 copies largely by word of mouth—an unheard-of feat for a debut folk record.

Critics took note of his deft guitar work and emotional clarity, but it was the unassuming wisdom threaded through his lyrics that truly set him apart.

Rolling Stone praised his “soulful insight,” while The New York Times called his music “a kind of open-hearted therapy.”

A string of acclaimed albums refined his reputation as a songwriter who knows how to say hard things in soft, lasting ways.

Over the years he’s shared stages and collaborations with artists like Shawn Colvin, Patty Larkin, and John Gorka.

Wilcox’s influence runs deep, especially among younger artists trying to build something real, and his music still resonates.

His songs remain a rare kind of company.

Not flashy.

Just deeply, generously alive.
