SUMMARY:José González
DESCRIPTION:José González is in a class by himself. Hailed by Rolling Stone as “someone whose subtle\, carefully crafted music delivers rewards to listeners who know how to wait\,” González’s stellar career can only be described as a dream. From selling out tours on virtually every continent to headlining prestigious festivals around the world to being asked to perform at 2020’s Nobel Prize Award Ceremony and seeing his recorded music exceed 1 billion streams\, González is one of the most exciting and in-demand touring artists working today. Whether appearing alone with his guitar or with a 20-piece orchestra\, or with his band The Brite Lites\, or choosing between duo and trio formats\, his performances are never merely shows – they are events. And González has every intention of continuing this tradition as he prepares his fully solo tour in support of the eagerly awaited release of his fourth studio album\, LOCAL VALLEY. \nThe visionary singer-songwriter/guitarist’s long-awaited album\, and first to contain songs in all of the languages he speaks (English\, Spanish and Swedish)\, LOCAL VALLEY provides a welcome reminder of the Gothenburg\, Sweden-based artist’s understated appeal and unabashed intimacy\, a quality Billboard praised as “one of the most recognizable sounds in indie rock.” The album finds González once again armed with just a handful of nylon-stringed Spanish guitars\, yet this time\, technology did creep into the proceedings. \n“I allowed myself to loop guitars as I aim to do live with pedals\,” González says\, “and in my head I was hearing how each track would fit with an orchestra (The String Theory) or my five-piece band (The Brite Lites)\, with whom I’ve been touring on and off the last decade.” \nFour albums in\, LOCAL VALLEY finds Jose González\, in the words of his new song\, “Visions\,” still “imagining the worlds that could be/Shaping a mosaic of fates/For all sentient beings.” With LOCAL VALLEY\, Jose González once again proves that music doesn’t need to be loud to be heard.

SUMMARY:Both Sides Now: The Music and Lives of Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen
DESCRIPTION:“Two singer-songwriters sit on the edge of a cliff . . .” \nWith these words\, we are drawn into the world of Both Sides Now\, a theatrical concert that explores the music and lives of long-time friends and one-time lovers\, Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen. Created by\, and starring Robbie Schaefer and Danielle Wertz\, the cabaret-style performance travels decades alongside songs such as A Case of You\, Hallelujah\, Big Yellow Taxi\, Suzanne\, and many more. Both Sides Now is at once a piece of the 60’s and 70’s\, and of right now–offering us a story about the messiness of being human\, of lives persistently lived at the edge of growth\, and of finding the courage to turn toward one another\, again and again.
