The legend returns to The Parkway!
Jimmy Webb is a Grammy Award-winning songwriter, composer, and singer known worldwide as a master of his trade. Dubbed a modern-day Gershwin/Porter/Berlin, he is a bona fide progenitor of the Great American Songbook. His timeless hits continue to be performed and recorded by the industry's biggest names, and his new compositions span the musical spectrum from classical and jazz, to country and gospel, to rock and pop. His intimate live performances incorporate storytelling and his exquisite piano skills. A not-to-be-missed evening of performance, pop culture, and songwriting at its best.
“A night with Jimmy at the keys is not unlike getting to hear George Gershwin or Cole Porter live. It’s hard to believe one guy could have written all these amazing songs. If you get a chance to see him live, grab it.” – Paul Zollo, Songwriters on Songwriting
"Few singers blend grit and grandeur like Jimmy Webb…[his] voice is like an old Mustang heading through a treacherous yet often gorgeous landscape." — Rolling Stone
“I need you more than want you / and I want you for all time. “
“Someone left the cake out in the rain.”
“By the time I get to Phoenix. . .”
“Galveston, oh Galveston, I can see your sea waves crashing.”
“Up, up, and away in my beautiful balloon.”
Hailed as America’s Songwriter, Jimmy Webb has written songs that transcend generations and genres — think “Wichita Lineman,” “MacArthur Park,” “By the Time I Get to Phoenix,” and “Didn’t We.” This Motown-trained composer writes all of his own lyrics and music and is the only hitmaker to have scored songs on the Pop, Country, R&B, Rap, Disco, and New Age charts.
During this Evening with Jimmy Webb, audiences will hear this multi-Grammy Award winner’s songs and experience his insightful and often humorous stories about his work with Glen Campbell, Frank Sinatra, Linda Ronstadt (“Still Within the Sound of My Voice”), Art Garfunkel (“All I Know”), The Fifth Dimension (“Up, Up and Away”), The Highwaymen (“The Highwayman”), Kanye West (“Famous” features Webb’s “Do What You Gotta Do”), and more.
Jimmy Webb is the author of the memoir, The Cake and the Rain, and the “bible” of songwriting, Tunesmith: The Art of Songwriting. In 2019 Webb released a piano-only CD, SlipCover, featuring some of his favorite songs from his contemporaries; Billy Joel, Paul Simon, The Rolling Stones, and more.
