Emmylou Harris

The beloved singer and roots music champion Emmylou Harris graces the Museum stage for the first time. Her contributions to the vitality of American folk, bluegrass, and country music cannot be overstated, and her early collaborations with the brilliant Gram Parsons made her a major figure in the emerging country-rock movement. Her musical intelligence, beautiful crystalline voice, and genre-crossing recordings have gained her millions of fans and the highest regard from fellow musicians such as Neil Young, Linda Rondstadt, Johnny Cash, and Elvis Costello. Recently inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame, Emmylou Harris has won 12 Grammy Awards and sold more than 15 million records over a 35-plus-year career.

Bluegrass greats Jimmy Gaudreau and Moondi Klein from the band Chesapeake open.
