Arlo Guthrie Tickets

Arlo Guthrie is from one of America's foremost musical families. The son of famed folk singer Woody Guthrie and grandson of poet Aliza Greenblatt, Guthrie grew up in a nourishing and artistic environment. By his early 20s, he was already something of a star thanks to the song "Alice's Restaurant Massacre." Playing this song on Thanksgiving has become a tradition for radio stations around the US, especially in the Northeast. Guthrie's biggest hit has been his version of the song "City of New Orleans."

A True One-of-a-Kind

Guthrie's career got its start at a time when the counterculture was causing big changes in America. As part of the 1960s youthquake, Guthrie gave voice to many of the attitudes and values of that era. His 18-minute epic "Alice's Restaurant Massacree" tells the story of his arrest in Mass. for illegally dumping trash from a friend's restaurant. This incident actually happened. Guthrie, a college-aged hippie, was picked up by an Officer Obie, a small-town cop who'd been sketched by Norman Rockwell. The incident was a good snapshot of generational tensions in America at the time. The song charted briefly, reaching No. 97 on the Hot 100. Guthrie's only other charting hit is "City of New Orleans," with its haunting chorus. That reached No. 18 on the Hot 100, No. 4 on the Easy Listening charts and peaked at No. 11 in Canada. Though Guthrie has never been a chart-topping star, he has consistently toured and remains a well-loved figure in pop culture.
