Todd Hearon is an award-winning poet, songwriter and dramatist. His albums have garnered attention and accolades with lyrics compared to the likes of Townes Van Zandt. Originally from Texas and now residing in New Hampshire, he came to the meadow behind the Barn on a muggy summer night along with a full band to play some songs- including tunes from his latest album "Impossible Man."
The Word Barn in Exeter, New Hampshire, was created to promote the sharing and cultivation of the arts in an open and welcoming setting, and contribute to an already existing and thriving arts community. NHPR and The Word Barn have teamed up to record live music each week, so we can bring this art directly into your car, kitchen, or headphones on a weekly basis. No cover charge.
