Roger Street Friedman is a modern Americana songwriter in the classic tradition—drawing comparisons to the great storytellers of the ’60s and ’70s while firmly rooted in the present moment. Across four critically acclaimed albums, including Love Hope Trust and his latest release Long Shadows, Friedman has built a reputation for thoughtful, emotionally direct songs that tackle love, loss, social justice, and the search for hope with nuance and humanity. Praised by outlets like American Songwriter, Relix, and Goldmine, and shaped by collaborations with Grammy-winning producer Larry Campbell, Friedman’s work blends folk, rock, blues, and country into songs that feel timeless, literate, and deeply felt.

This special show is a chance to experience those songs the way they’re meant to be heard—up close, intimate, and in a room built for listening. Friedman’s performances are warm, conversational, and powerful, pulling audiences into stories that resonate long after the final note. If you love smart songwriting, rich melodies, and music that actually has something to say, this is a night you won’t want to miss. Roger Street Friedman plays the Barn on Thursday, 2/26, and tickets are strongly recommended for this rare, thoughtful evening of Americana at its finest.
