SUMMARY:Molly Tuttle
DESCRIPTION:On the heels of two Grammy-winning albums in succession\, with her band Golden Highway—2022’s Crooked Tree and 2023’s City of Gold—plus a nomination for Best New Artist\, Molly Tuttle returns with a solo album that’s her most dazzling to date: So Long Little Miss Sunshine.  \nRecorded in Nashville with producer Jay Joyce (Orville Peck\, Miranda Lambert\, Lainey Wilson\, Eric Church\, Cage the Elephant)\, the fifth full album from the California-born\, Nashville-based singer\, songwriter\, and virtuoso guitarist features twelve new songs—eleven originals and one highly unexpected cover of Icona Pop and Charli xcx’s “I Love It.”  \nTuttle’s career\, which began at age fifteen\, has charted a course between honoring bluegrass and stretching its boundaries. On this album—a hybrid of pop\, country\, rock\, and flat-picking\, plus one murder ballad—she goes to a whole new place. Her stunning guitar work is more up-front on this album than ever before. (One of the most decorated female guitarist alive\, Tuttle was the first woman to win the prestigious International Bluegrass Music Award’s Guitar Player of the Year in 2017\, at age twenty-four\, and won again the following year\, with nominations nearly every year since; she has also won Americana Music Association’s Instrumentalist of the Year award.) \nThis event takes place at the Masonic Jack White Theatre\, formerly the Masonic Cathedral Theatre.

SUMMARY:Gillian Welch and David Rawlings
DESCRIPTION:Gillian Welch’s rich and remarkable career spans over twenty-five years\, and she and her musical partner David Rawlings are a pillar of the modern acoustic music world. They have been hailed by Pitchfork as “modern masters of American folk” and “protectors of the American folk song” by Rolling Stone. \nAfter moving to Nashville in the early 1990s\, Welch was launched into the public consciousness when Emmylou Harris recorded a cover of Welch’s “Orphan Girl.” Her career continued to flourish as her 1996 debut Revival\, produced by T Bone Burnett\, was released to critical acclaim. Firmly on the roots music map following the release\, Welch followed up that GRAMMY nominated album release with 1998’s Hell Among The Yearlings\, a stark duet record with Rawlings\, further solidifying the duo as a force in the folk music scene. \nFor her work as executive producer as well as a performer and songwriter on the eight times platinum O Brother\, Where Art Thou? soundtrack\, Welch was awarded the Album of the Year GRAMMY\, and was simultaneously nominated for her own Time (The Revelator) which Rolling Stone called one of the best albums of the 2000s and is widely considered by critics to be one of the best albums of all time. This release was Welch-Rawlings’ first on their own record label\, Acony Records\, helping to establish the duo’s fierce commitment to independent music. \nArtist presale 7/23 10am\nSpotify presale 7/24 10am\nPublic on sale 7/25 10am

SUMMARY:Cowboy Junkies
DESCRIPTION:Sometimes revolutions begin quietly. \nIn 1988\, Cowboy Junkies proved that there was an audience waiting for something quiet\, beautiful and reflective. The Trinity Session was like a whisper that cut through the noise — and it was compelling. It stood out in the midst of the flash and bombast that came to define the late 80’s. The now classic recording combined folk\, blues and rock in a way that had never been heard before and went on to sell more than a million copies.  \nFormed in Toronto in 1985 with siblings Michael Timmins on guitar\, Margo Timmins on vocals\, Peter Timmins on drums\, and Michael’s lifelong friend Alan Anton on bass\, the band has sparkled over the course of 29 albums. “I’ve known Alan longer than I’ve known Pete\,” says Michael. “We were friends before Pete was born.” \nUnlike most long-lasting groups\, Cowboy Junkies have never had a break up or taken a sanity-saving hiatus. There’s an appreciation of each other that keeps them constantly working. “It’s that intimacy and understanding of what each one of us brings to the table\,” says Michael. Cowboy Junkies’ will be performing a career-spanning show\, including their new album\, ‘Such Ferocious Beauty’\, which was released worldwide on June 2\, 2023 to universal critical acclaim.

SUMMARY:Lyle Lovett and His Large Band

Coupled with his gift for storytelling\, the Texas-based musician fuses elements of country\, swing\, jazz\, folk\, gospel and blues in a convention-defying manner that breaks down barriers. \nWhether touring as a Duo or with his Acoustic Group or his Large Band\, Lovett’s live performances show not only the breadth of this Texas legend’s deep talents\, but also the diversity of his influences\, making him one of the most compelling and captivating musicians in popular music. \nSince his self-titled debut in 1986\, Lyle Lovett has evolved into one of music’s most vibrant and iconic performers.

SUMMARY:Lake Street Dive
DESCRIPTION:Since forming in 2004\, Lake Street Dive have matched their sophisticated musicianship with a fearless refusal to limit their sound. As shown on their most recent full-length album\, 2021’s critically acclaimed Obviously\, the Boston-bred band also possess a keen talent for combining sociopolitical commentary with immediately catchy pop gems. With their current lineup comprised of founding members Rachael Price (vocals)\, Bridget Kearney (bass)\, and Michael Calabrese (drums) — as well as keyboardist/vocalist Akie Bermiss and touring guitarist James Cornelison — Lake Street Dive continue to create joyously soulful rock & roll with equal parts ingenuity\, intelligence\, and irresistible abandon. \nAlthough a certain spirited eclecticism has defined Lake Street Dive since their earliest days\, the band’s four original members (including former guitarist/trumpet player Michael “McDuck” Olson) first crossed paths while studying jazz at Boston’s New England Conservatory of Music. Their full-length debut In This Episode… arrived in 2007\, followed by three more independently released and rapturously received albums. As the band’s energetic live show continued to earn them a devoted following\, Lake Street Dive made their Nonesuch Records debut with Side Pony: a 2016 effort that instantly shot to No. 1 on three Billboard charts and later landed on Paste’s 50 Best Albums of 2016 list. The following year\, the group experienced a new infusion of creative energy with the addition of Bermiss (previously their touring keyboardist)\, who has since begun sharing writing and arrangement duties. Arriving in 2018\, Lake Street Dive’s selfproduced sixth album Free Yourself Up debuted in the top ten on the Billboard 200 and spent seven-and-a-half months on the non-commercial radio charts\, with the smoldering hit single “Good Kisser” holding steady in the top five at Americana radio for over a month. \nIn recent years\, Lake Street Dive have brought even more boldness to their kaleidoscopic sound while deliberately expanding their songcraft. To that end\, Obviously finds the band examining such complex matters as gender inequality (on “Being a Woman”) and the monumental challenges faced by younger generations (on “Making Do”)\, shaping each track with a profound intentionality and ineffable mastery of melody and groove — a process Price refers to as “putting these messages into three and a half minute snippets\, dropping whatever truth we can and hoping it’s the type of thing that people want to ruminate on.” Made with producer Mike Elizondo (Fiona Apple\, Mary J. Blige)\, the result is an endlessly illuminating body of work that’s earned praise from the likes of Rolling Stone (who noted that “[a]t a moment when pop strives for lo-fi\, solitary-world intimacy\, the jazz-pop-whatever band refuse to think small”). \nLast fall\, to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of their first covers EP\, Lake Street Dive released Fun Machine: The Sequel\, a 6-track EP of cover songs produced by Robin MacMillan and recorded at Figure 8 Recording in Brooklyn and Lucy’s Meat Market in Los Angeles. This new collection of songs reveals what makes the group so unique and their curations so special. Lake Street Dive don’t just inhabit these interpretations; they knock the walls down\, re-finish the floors\, and on some of them add a new room or two — it’s a way to both acknowledge their inspirations while also advancing their own musical foundation\, inspiring a new generation of fans along the way. And as always\, it’s their signature combination of immaculate musicianship\, exceptional\, inventive chops\, and free-wheeling\, playful sense of fun and originality leading the way. \nOver the years\, they’ve captivated massive audiences at such esteemed festivals as Newport Folk Festival\, Telluride Bluegrass Festival\, and Toronto Jazz Festival\, in addition to headlining tours all across the globe and sharing stages with acts like Brandi Carlile and Sheryl Crow. And through their fierce commitment to constantly elevating their artistry\, Lake Street Dive have ultimately emerged as one of the most compelling voices in alternative music today\, both reliably sublime and thrilling unpredictable. \nLake Street Drive have partnered with PLUS1 so that $1 per ticket will go towards supporting gun violence prevention initiatives.
