Woody Guthrie

    14 juillet 1912 – 3 octobre 1967

    Woodrow Wilson Guthrie était un auteur-compositeur et musicien folk américain dont le vaste héritage musical comprend des centaines de chansons et de ballades. Influencé par ses expériences durant l'ère du Dust Bowl, son œuvre couvre un large éventail de thèmes, du commentaire politique aux airs folk traditionnels. Guthrie s'est produit continuellement tout au long de sa vie, sa guitare arborant tristement célèbre le slogan "Cette machine tue les fascistes". Malgré sa maladie, il est devenu une figure de proue du mouvement folk, inspirant une nouvelle génération de musiciens.
