Over the years, fans of all ages have enjoyed Peter, Paul and Mary’s folk hits, from “If I Had a Hammer” to “Puff, the Magic Dragon.” Even after the passing of Mary Travers in 2009, the world continues to celebrate the group’s fifty-plus years in music.
In response to those still-adoring legions, Peter Yarrow will promote the new book Peter, Paul and Mary: Fifty Years in Music and Life, tonight in Boulder. “Peter, Paul and Mary still have a huge following even after all these years,” says Donna Spurlock of Charlesbridge Publishing. “People are still really into their music and into their activism.”
Yarrow will begin with some nostalgic songs and stories of the group’s time on the road; a book signing will follow the performance. The book, which features some of Mary’s personal writings, will be available for sale at the event or in advance at the Boulder Book Store, 1107 Pearl Street.
The program begins at 7:30 p.m. at the First Congregational Church, 1128 Pine Street in Boulder; an $8 voucher is required to attend and entitles the buyer to $5 off the price of the book. Buy yours online at boulderbookstore.indiebound.com or at the door.
