An expatriate New Yorker now living in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Richard Shindell is a meticulous craftsman of song whose six studio albums and one live recording have been revered by critics and fans alike. Innovative, original and occasionally spiritual, Shindell’s songs weave tales that interchangeably champion the downtrodden, exalt the disaffected or wax empathetic to those lost to society’s fringes.
From his first record, Sparrow’s Point (1992) to the newest album South of Delia (2007), Shindell has demonstrated a penchant for songwriting at once passionate and profound. Shindell’s songwriting is truly eclectic, ranging from lighthearted ballads and adulterous love songs, to dirges and diatribes that skillfully skewer politics, prejudice, war, and religion. He has a unique ability to morph into the soul of the many and varied personalities he casts as narrators in certain songs — songs that are veritable novellas framed in haunting acoustic melodies.
Richard has spent many summer days in Wellfleet and played to a sold out audience in Wellfleet in 2010. We are excited to welcome him back!
Dar has been enjoying summers in Wellfleet with her family for years and her affection for both Wellfleet Preservation Hall and WOMR inspired her to offer a concert to benefit these two Outer Cape favorites.

Barnes has worked as a trial & civil rights lawyer, an international mediator and is a regular commentator on National Public Radio. In the 1980s he negotiated nuclear issues with leaders in the Kremlin. In the 1990's he facilitated talks between opposing sides in the war between Armenia and Azerbaijan and thereafter led talks to knit together trans-boundary water agreements between Kazakhstan, Uzbeckistan, Tajickistan, and Kyrghizstan. These negotiations led to the first multi-year, multi-lateral agreement n the history of these new republics. In 2006, in the midst of growing concern about the war in Iraq, Barnes wrote and directed Ed Asner in a staged reading of a trial drama, A Nation Deceived, American's First Presidential Felony Trial. Also in 2006, Barnes published a history and analysis of the roles of women as they appear in archeology and myth before the patriarchy, In Search Of The Lost Feminine, Decoding the Myths that Radically Reshaped Civilization. This book was the recipient of Book USA and Eric Hoffer Awards. Barnes' most recent book, a history of the courageous pioneers of the rule of law and democracy's ongoing fight against modern feudalism at home and abroad, is titled Democracy At the Crossroads: Princes, Peasants, Poets and Presidents in the Struggle for (and against) the Rule of Law.
