“Kid, I want you to go over and sit down on that bench that says Group W.”

It’s been a great 50+ years of being a working entertainer, but I reached the difficult decision that touring and stage shows are no longer possible. That’s the short version. For the longer version continue reading…

As a folksinger, I never really thought much about getting older. It seemed to me that I could just continue year after year, decade after decade, singing and playing as I had done for most of my life. As the years went by, it got more difficult to keep touring, but I did it, mostly because I’d been doing it my entire life. It was the life I knew and loved.

As expected, the remainder of the 20/20 Tour dates are being rescheduled and in some instances cancelled. Updates coming soon. We've also got some stuff in the works, and we'll keep you posted here. Stay tuned!

Let’s help Clearwater! The organization founded by our beloved Pete Seeger is facing some hard times.

Nothing is more important to Arlo than the well-being of his audiences, friends and the hardworking staff at all the venues that host his show.

With the first leg of the 20/20 Tour in the books, Arlo gets back on the road again for more dates as he brings along Folk Uke (the occasionally NSFW duo of Cathy Guthrie & Amy Nelson). 

With about two weeks or so left to go before we hit the road, we're gearing up for the shows planned for 2020. The first segment begins in Clearwater, FL at The Capitol Theater, and moves up the east coast through Charlotte, Durham and Walhalla. The second segment rolls through Hopewell, Alexandria, Waynesboro, Atlanta and Pelham. Detailed info is elsewhere on this site.

Well, we did it. The last annual Thanksgiving concert at Carnegie Hall was Sold Out, and is now in the rearview mirror, and what a night it was. There were so many old friends there, most of whom I never even got a chance to see. I'm talking about people I actually know and love – friends from school days, family friends, relations – it was insane.

Arlo is happy to announce that Folk Uke will be joining him for his all new 20/20 Tour starting in February!  The folkslinger will continue to include the Alice’s Restaurant Massacree in the repertoire until May 2020, and in addition to some favorites, expect plenty of surprises!

A decades-long tradition will be coming to a close on Saturday, November 30, 2019. Come join us for an extra special evening of family and friends to celebrate the season with Arlo one last time on the Perelman Stage. Only a few seats remain. Call CarnegieCharge at 212-247-7800 or visit www.carnegiehall.org. 

A beloved tradition for decades, Arlo will host his last Annual Thanksgiving at Carnegie Hall this year.

Arlo has loved coming home to NYC to play Carnegie Hall since 1967.
The folkslinger's Annual Thanksgiving Concert has become a beloved tradition for so many. 
After 52 years, Arlo has decided that 2019 will be his final Thanksgiving Show at Carnegie Hall. 

 Rising Son Records is happy to announce that this title is once again available for digital download.

Thank you all who attended our first ever YouTube Premiere event last night!

Arlo Guthrie premieres "Gates of Eden (Live)" video Tuesday February 19, 2019 at 6PM ET.

We began 2019 in January playing a string of shows in Florida. They were all, if I say so myself, really good and a lot of fun. We headed northward into Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia and Maryland. Annapolis, MD was the farthest north we’ve been so far this year.
