Music on the Delaware

Virtual Coffeehouse Concert #3

Music on the Delaware’s third Fall Virtual Coffeehouse Concert will take place on Sunday, October 18 from 7:00-8:00 pm. The performer will be singer/songwriter Walt Birbeck.

Originally from Philadelphia, Walt is now based in southern New Jersey. After a spell in the Marines, he spent most of his life working in mental health and substance abuse treatment, except for a few years in Seattle where he had a film and video studio. A casual musician for most of his life, Walt only seriously began to write songs after he retired. Writing soon led to performing.

A man of eclectic tastes, Walt’s songs are poetic and highly personal – songs of perspective and understanding that come with age. Generally folk-based, his tunes are simple and straightforward, meant to help communicate his lyrics, which focus on the intricacies of human relationships with a wry touch. He will use guitar and keyboard to accompany his singing.
