Tom Paxton & John McCutcheon Releasing New Duo Album 'Together Again'

In early August 2021, John McCutcheon reached out to his longtime friend Tom Paxton with a simple idea: why not use Zoom—a newly essential tool in those pandemic days—to connect, ease the isolation of COVID, and maybe write a few songs together?  That following Monday at 2:00 PM Eastern, they logged in. One Monday led to the next, and soon the weekly sessions became a ritual. More than four years later, they’re still at it. Now comes Together Again another fourteen songs from two of the most revered songwriters in acoustic music.

 This time, things look a little different: at 88, Paxton has retired from the road, and McCutcheon, a spry 73, has scaled back his touring schedule. But both remain at the height of their creative powers. It’s a rare and welcome thing to find them—Together Again.

Please welcome folk legends TOM PAXTON and JOHN McCUTCHEON to Interviewing the Legends.
