Legendary Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter 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. Five decades later, her luminescent presence shines brightly as new generations bask in the glow of her iconic 50-album body of work, and heed inspiration from her spiritual discipline to thrive in the music industry for half a century.
With hits like "Both Sides Now," "Send in the Clowns," and "Someday Soon," Collins has left an indelible mark on the world of music for six decades. Her landmark 1967 album, Wildflowers, has been entered into the Grammy Hall of Fame.
In 2022, Judy Collins released her first studio album of all original material, entitled Spellbound, which marks the first time she herself has written all the songs on one of her albums. Judy says of the album, “Now felt like the perfect time to make this record because, after all that’s happened in the world, we need something beautiful and inspirational to lift us up.” Spellbound features 12 modern folk songs, and “unfolds as if Judy curated a museum exhibit of her life, and welcomed us into a retrospective of her most formative moments, some big and public, and some intensely personal and intimate.”
Don't miss your chance to be part of an extraordinary evening with the timeless Judy Collins for An Evening with Judy Collins, Wednesday, September 19th at the Washington Center for the Performing Arts.
