Lee Ebersole and Friends
The Music of John Denver

The music of John Denver for many people is an expression of life, love, and beacon of hope in the midst of trying times. The ability he had to speak to common human experiences of life contributed to his being.  (AllMusic)
 

John Denver’s songs have a way of touching people’s hearts across generations. High school students can still be heard singing “Country Roads”.  There was a time when his was the music of road trips.  John’s music still transcends generations.
 

Denver’s use of his platform to promote worldwide peace, justice and care for the environment is still important to Lee Ebersole. The plagues of world hunger, environmental neglect and the ravages of war and arms races during his time continue even now. Some may say he was a dreamer, but his vision for the world continues to shine a light into our current context. May those dreams be realized in our time.
