John Gorka

John Gorka is one of the most highly respected and popular songwriters on the contemporary folk scene. We’ve told his story before of the early years working with and learning from some of the top artists on the folk scene while working at Godfrey Daniels in Bethlehem, PA in the late ‘70’s and then striking out on his own to quickly become one of the top artists himself. He released his first album in 1987 on the prestigious Red House Records label and since he has released 11 critically acclaimed albums and in 2010 he joined fellow songwriters Eliza Gilkyson and Lucy Kaplansky to record an album under the name Red Horse. Originally from New Jersey, John now lives in Minnesota with his wife and children.
