You can enjoy watching our past performers’ shows by clicking on our Video Gallery. \n\n\n\nFeatured Performer: Claudia Schmidt \n\n\n\n\n\nIf it were the intention of the creator or creators of this universe to perfectly blend together the night sky with moon and stars\, it might have been their intention as well to deliver Claudia Schmidt as their messenger of reminder. \n\n\n\nTo say that Schmidt is simply a performer with a talent to entertain would be an understatement. Schmidt takes her audiences into her world as easily as the child who discovers the endless universes that exist in a cardboard box. We are delighted that she is performing for Woodstock Wednesdays. The peace and gratitude that she conveys in her music is truly a gift we can be thankful for this week. \n\n\n\nFrom lying on sandy beaches under an endless barrage of northern lights\, to the expected anguish and frustration of spinning tires on cars stuck deep in snow\, from the age-old struggle of change between adolescence and adulthood to the observation of sheer idiocy\, she leaves it to the imagination of her audience to conjure their own images of her storytelling and song. No interpretation of a Claudia Schmidt song or story is wrong — she invites audiences to tie their associations to her style. \n\n\n\nAbout Claudia and her connection to Woodstock Folk Festival \n\n\n\nWe have followed and supported her from the beginning and throughout her career. She performed at our festival as recently as 2011. She is recognized as an acclaimed artist and was recently on the “Wisdom of the Elders” panel at a recent FARM (Folk Alliance Region Midwest) conference. \n\n\n\nSchmidt weaves her way through her concert in much the same manner as a jester. Interwoven anecdotes\, revealing her past and present\, bring people to expect a relationship between themselves and memories driven deep with the passage of time. The concert is an endless display of self-realization through humor and longing\, leaving audience members yearning to become an integral part of her world. In addition to doing both folk and jazz\, Claudia also does theater and poetry. Aside from her own work\, Claudia has worked with follow artists such as Michael P. Smith and Sally Rogers. Claudia Schmidt performing live. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Schmidt is a one-woman revitalization movement. Schmidt is the best at what she does.” ~ The Tribune (Oakland\, Ca.) \n\n\n\n“Claudia Schmidt is a true artist-she has talent AND the fire of genius.” ~ The Boston Globe \n\n\n\nWe know you will enjoy Claudia’s show. \n\n\n\nViews expressed by performers and others who appear at Woodstock Folk Festival events or on the website are solely the views of these individuals and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Festival or its Board members. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n Email\n \n Print (Opens in new window)\n Print\n Like this:Like Loading… URL:https://woodstockfolkfestival.org/event/claudia-schmidt-woodstock-wednesdays/ CATEGORIES:Online,Woodstock Wednesdays ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://woodstockfolkfestival.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Featured-Image-Claudia-Schmidt-11-25-20-2.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20201118T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20201118T193000 DTSTAMP:20201116T211341Z CREATED:20201116T211141Z LAST-MODIFIED:20201116T211341Z UID:2196-1605726000-1605727800@woodstockfolkfestival.org SUMMARY:David R.

The family is passionate about inspiring parents and children to enjoy music\, culture\, and creativity together. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Lucero Garcia children are 4th generation musicians The family’s music story began in 2006 when the two eldest boys (then 3 and 4) began singing with their father and his band. In 2015 this large family of 9 relocated from the state of New Mexico to their mother’s hometown Chicago\, IL to provide their children with better opportunities.  \n\n\n\nSince moving to Chicago\, the Lucero family supports themselves 100% through the arts and has had the thrill of performing for large audiences at Chicago Bulls games\, Millennium Park\, the Art Institute of Chicago\, music festivals\, various television programs and hundreds of private events. \n\n\n\nTo purchase their album\, Cielito Lindo by Cielito Lindo Family Music\, go to cielitolindo.co. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCielito Lindo has the following events scheduled online or through a drive-in venue: \n\n\n\n9/15/20 Tues 6pm – 6:30 pm – Live Streamed – Chicago Public Library Latinx Heritage Month \n\n\n\n9/17/20 Thurs 6:00 pm – Chicago ChiTown Futbol (Drive-In) 2343 S.

That’s the story of Cielito Lindo\, one of Chicago’s very own. Cielito Lindo has been entertaining Chicago for the last 2 years from private parties to a Bulls game. This family of 9 has wowed anyone who listens to it’s wonderful talent. ” ~ Ana Belaval\, WGN News “Esta agrupación familiar se destaca por mantener vigente la música regional mexicana.

They really had the audience dancing and moving and they grabbed the attention of people who were just passing by. I appreciated that they were so engaging with the audience and spoke to parents about the importance of exploring the arts at home and how it’s impacted their family.
