Noel Paul Stookey is a legendary figure in American folk music. As one-third of the iconic trio Peter, Paul, and Mary, Noel helped shape the soundtrack of the 1960s, delivering timeless hits like "Puff, the Magic Dragon" and "If I Had a Hammer." Beyond the trio, his solo career has been equally impactful, notably with "The Wedding Song (There Is Love)," a piece that has become a staple at countless ceremonies worldwide.

In recent years, Noel has continued to innovate. His latest projects include "Neworld Sampler," a collection featuring collaborations with fellow artists, and "Fazz: Now & Then," an album blending folk and jazz elements—a style he's been cultivating for decades.

In this episode, Noel also talks with us about the process of working on his memoir, which offers an intimate look into his life, music, and the social justice commitments that have defined his career.

Join us as we delve into Noel's rich musical journey, his recent creative endeavors, and the stories behind the songs that have touched generations.
