On Saturday, July 24, at 8:00pm, the Watchung Arts Center presents Saul Broudy, one of the finest harmonica players in folk circles across the country. Not only does Saul play a mean harmonica but his tenor voice and masterful guitar playing make him part of American culture. His career spans 20 years of performance in virtually every major folk music venue. He is an audience favorite singing country, blues, bluegrass and other traditional and grassroots music.

Mr. Broudy is comfortable with his audience as he combines experience with expertise and flair presenting a repertoire based on his travel to such places as the Cajun sound in Southern Louisiana, hobo songs from the Midwest, jazz and blues from Kansas City and the honky tonk sound from Texas. The excitement and love he feels for the music makes his performances pure entertainment while informing and involving the listeners.

Saul also holds a Ph.D. in folklore from the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia where he grew up and now lives. He tours all over the US and Canada and recently finished a European tour.

Saul loves to involve the audience with sing along and clapping fun, while giving them a bit of the old history or the song and its life. His dynamic energy is catching and he could break your heart or make you howl with laughter just with the texture of his voice. Don’t miss this fine entertainer at the Watchung Arts Center. Tickets are only $10 and can be reserved by calling (908) 753-0190.
