“Finding the right song to sing is ‘like falling in love, pure and simple.’” Judy Collins for USA Today
Tickets: $60 (fees not included)
Judy Collins has inspired audiences with sublime vocals, boldly vulnerable songwriting, personal life triumphs, and a firm commitment to social activism. In the 1960s, she evoked both the idealism and steely determination of a generation united against social and environmental injustices.
The award-winning singer-songwriter is esteemed for her imaginative interpretations of traditional and contemporary folk standards and her own poetically poignant original compositions.
Five decades later, her luminescent presence shines brightly as new generations bask in the glow of her iconic 55-album body of work, and heed inspiration from her spiritual discipline to thrive in the music industry for half a century.
Opening for Judy is Norwegian duo Oakland Rain, consisting of twin sisters Maren and Charlotte. The duo has toured extensively in Norway and throughout the U.S. and Europe, and their songwriting has been mentioned on Billboard’s list of recommendations.
