David Berkeley returns to Club Passim to release his deeply personal new album, A Pail Full of Fire. Berkeley’s gift as a songwriter and storyteller is that he sees the tragedy and comedy in life, writing songs capable of both breaking and healing the heart. He has been called a “musical poet,” by the San Francisco Chronicle, and the New York Times praises his “lustrous, melancholy voice with shades of Tim Buckley and Nick Drake.” That voice and his gift with words is what first sets Berkeley apart from all other guitar slinging songwriters. But it is his onstage charisma and unparalleled between-song repartee that truly puts him in a class by himself. Each show is completely unique, and his humanity shines through every note he sings and every word he speaks. Berkeley has released eight studio albums, one live album, and authored two books, each of which pairs with one of his albums. He was a guest on This American Life, telling an outrageous story of a private serenade he was once hired to perform, and he has won many songwriting awards and honors including ASCAPs Johnny Mercer Songwriting Award. Berkeley is also one half of the wildly creative transatlantic folk duo Sons of Town Hall who are in the midst of rolling out their radio theater podcast, Madmen Cross the Water, in conjunction with their new album, Of Ghosts and Gods.
