Geoff Bartley is a blues, folk and jazz influenced acoustic guitarist, singer, songwriter and harmonica player. The folk press has called him folk music at its best, a brilliant songwriter, a world-class guitarist, a local legend and the prophet and spiritual godfather of the Boston folk scene. Geoff hosts two nights of acoustic music each week at the Cantab Lounge in Cambridge, Massachusetts, both of which have been voted Best of Boston in local A&E media. In addition to his own musical endeavors, Geoff plays guitar and sings harmony for topical songwriter and folk icon Tom Paxton.
"Geoff is an amazing player, he writes wonderful songs that speak to the heart and if that weren’t enough, he is a great person who really cares about folk and roots music and the people who make it."
