Biography

Guy Hughes Carawan Jr., born on July 28, 1927, in Los Angeles, California, was an American folk musician and musicologist. He earned a bachelor's degree in mathematics from Occidental College and a master's degree in sociology from UCLA before moving to New York City and becoming involved with the American folk music revival in Greenwich Village during the 1950s. He played the banjo, guitar, hammered and Appalachian dulcimers, and recorder. He served as music director at the Highlander Research and Education Center in New Market, Tennessee, where he introduced "We Shall Overcome" to the Civil Rights Movement by teaching it to the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) in 1960. He frequently performed with his wife, singer Candie Carawan. His discography includes the albums Songs with Guy Carawan (1958), Guy Carawan Sings: Something Old, New, Borrowed and Blue (1959), and This Little Light of Mine (1959). His work at Highlander included recording and archiving the evolution of the Civil Rights Movement through song. He retired in the late 1980s and passed away on May 2, 2015, in New Market, Tennessee.
