Having just celebrated his 80th birthday with a star studden concert at Town Hall in Manhattan, Loudon will bring his classic song catalog to Arden for the first time on January 8! Born in Chapel Hill, N.C. in 1946, **Loudon Wainwright III** came to fame when “Dead Skunk” became a Top 20 hit in 1972. He had studied acting at Carnegie-Mellon University but dropped out to partake in the Summer of Love in San Francisco and wrote his first song in 1968 (“Edgar,” about a lobsterman in Rhode Island). Loudon was signed to Atlantic Records by Nesuhi Ertegun, and after that was lured by Clive Davis to Columbia Records, which released “Dead Skunk.” His songs have since been recorded by the likes of Bonnie Raitt, Johnny Cash, Earl Scruggs, Kate & Anna McGarrigle, his son **Rufus Wainwright**, and Mose Allison among others.
