Claudia Schmidt

Presented by Granite City Folk Society at Bo Diddley's Pub & Deli

Claudia Schmidt has been writing, playing, and singing across the midwest and far beyond for four decades, defying categories and exploring various corners of folk, pop, and jazz. She has felt like one of Minnesota’s own since the early days of A Prairie Home Companion, and we’d like to make her one of ours at GCFS as well.

“Claudia Schmidt belongs to the genre of hyperliterate songwriters, a word-monger of the first order, sometimes bursting at the boundaries of song form. In addition, she’s a firecracker of a singer, irrepressibly emotional, and a radiant, almost overwhelming performer.” –Chris Rietz, Lansing State Journal

Claudia Schmidt is “one of those people who is just inherently musical as she’d move, seemingly effortlessly from a Michael Smith song, to a blues standard, to a traditional ballad sung a cappella.” –Mike Regenstreif, Folk Roots/Folk Branches

“Those who keep trying to categorize Claudia Schmidt’s music should just give it up and file her under the general category ‘TALENT’ Big talent.” –Post-Bulletin, Rochester, Minnesota
