About the artist

Pete Seeger

Pete Seeger, the legendary folk musician and social activist, is a name that needs no introduction. With a career spanning over seven decades, Seeger is a true icon of American music. From folk anthems like "Where Have All the Flowers Gone" to protest songs like "We Shall Overcome," Seeger's music has not only entertained but also inspired generations of listeners. Born in 1919 in New York City, Seeger was immersed in music from a young age, thanks to his parents' passion for folk music. He learned to play the banjo and guitar, and by the time he was in his twenties, he was already making a name for himself in the music scene. But it wasn't just Seeger's musical talent that set him apart - it was his unwavering commitment to using his music as a tool for social change. He was a vocal supporter of civil rights, environmental conservation, and peace activism, and his songs often reflected his political beliefs. Seeger's influence on the folk music scene cannot be overstated. He was a founding member of the influential group The Weavers, and his solo career was equally impressive. His music touched the hearts of people around the world, and his legacy continues to inspire musicians to this day. In 2009, at the age of 90, Seeger performed at President Barack Obama's inauguration, proving that age is no barrier to making great music. Pete Seeger may no longer be with us, but his music lives on, a testament to the power of song to change the world.
