CD release concert in Skokie March 14 - Mark Dvorak

SKOKIE IL -When singer songwriter Mark Dvorak began his career in music, he knew right away he was in it for the long haul. Thirty-two years later he is still writing, on the road performing and recording.

Let Love Go On is Dvorak’s eighteenth recorded release and represents a creative milestone. He produced, arranged, engineered, mixed and mastered the entire project. Further, he wrote seven of the songs, played all of the instruments and sang all of the parts.

St. Tim’s Coffee House welcomes Dvorak back to its concert series for a CD release show on Saturday, March 14, at 7:00 pm. St. Tim’s is located in St. Timothy’s Lutheran Church, 9000 Kildare Avenue.

“At this stage of the game,” said the singer, “I feel like I’m doing my best work.”

The Chicago Tribune has called Dvorak, “masterful,” and the Fox Valley Folk Festival describes him as “a living archive of song and style.” He has won awards for journalism, children’s music, and was honored in 2013 with the FARM Lantern Bearer Award from Folk Alliance International. In 2008 he received the Woodstock Folk Festival Lifetime Achievement Award and in 2012 Rich Warren, host of The Midnight Special, named Dvorak “Chicago’s official troubadour.”

St. Tim’s Coffee House is Chicago’s north shore series for folk and acoustic music.

“We’re now in our 5th season,” said music director Sandy Wong Ronkoske. “Our purpose is to provide an intimate setting for live music and to build community through our shared expressions.”

Doors open at 6:30 pm. A donation of $20 is suggested. Advance tickets are available through Brown Paper Tickets www.brownpapertickets.com/event/4306288.
