GUEST,John C. Bunnell Singer/players in the bardic tradition (8) RE: Singer/players in the bardic tradition 31 Aug 18

I don't know that I can think of a prominent new example here in the 21st century, but one might make a case for Tom Paxton taking on that role in the last third of the 20th. Certainly there are few writer/performers who've accumulated so large a body of work with so wide a range, including children's songs ("Marvelous Toy"), political commentary ("I Am Changing My Name To Chrysler"), and character-driven lyrics ("Rambling Boy").
