Happy Birthday, Barry! Another year strummed by and you're still tuning up the Bay Area with your legendary guitar wisdom. From teaching countless fingers to dance across fretboards, to orchestrating 13 unforgettable years of Berkeley Folk Music Festivals—your life's playlist is truly timeless.May this birthday bring you as much joy as you've given San Francisco's folk music scene over the decades. Keep inspiring us all with your passion for melodies and storytelling; after all these years, you're still hitting every note perfectly (well...almost!). Here's wishing you another harmonious trip around the sun filled with laughter, love—and fewer broken strings!
