Arlo Guthrie

Arlo Guthrie is an American folk singer-songwriter—and Berkshire icon—known for songs against social injustice. Collaborating remotely with Jim Wilson and Vanessa Bryan, Arlo recently released a stunning folk rendition of “Hard Times No More,” inspired by the global pandemic and BLM movement. In 1991, Arlo founded the Guthrie Center at the Trinity Church in Great Barrington, an interfaith church dedicated to uniting individuals and serving the community. It is also the former home of Alice, the subject of his most popular song, “Alice’s Restaurant Massacre” (1965).
