Singer-songwriter Doug Mishkin brings heartfelt storytelling and social awareness to every song he writes, and both are front and center on his latest album, "Tip of the Spear." Released in 2025, the record reflects Mishkin’s gift for pairing thoughtful lyrics with warm, roots-driven melodies, exploring themes of justice, resilience, and human connection.
Doug Mishkin will bring these songs to the stage with a concert in Schenectady on January 10, 2026, offering Capital Region audiences a chance to experience his music in an intimate live setting. Information about the concert is below.
We had the opportunity to catch up with Doug during an interview and session taping at the 2025 NERFA conference in Albany, where he spoke about his songwriting process and the stories behind the new album. Discover why Doug Mishkin continues to be a powerful voice in contemporary folk music.
