Celebrate the remarkable career of one of the most revered voices in American music as Emmylou Harris presents an intimate, beautiful evening of songs and stories.
A 14-time Grammy winner and Billboard Century Award recipient, Harris’ contribution as a singer and songwriter spans 50 years across folk, country, and Americana.
She is one of the most influential women in music and is known as much for her eloquently straightforward songwriting as for her incomparably expressive singing.
Admired through her career for her talent as an artist and song connoisseur, Harris shook up country radio in the 1970s, established herself as the premiere songwriter of a generation selling more than 15 million records and garnering 14 Grammy Awards, three CMA Awards, and four Americana Awards.
In recognition of her remarkable career, Harris was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2008 and earned a Grammy Lifetime Achievement award in 2018.
She has recorded more than 25 albums and lent her talents to countless fellow artists’ recordings, including Linda Ronstadt, Daniel Lanois, Bob Dylan, Mark Knopfler, Neil Young, Gram Parsons, Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Roy Orbison, Ryan Adams, Beck, Elvis Costello, Johnny Cash, Lucinda Williams, Lyle Lovett and Rodney Crowell.
Presented by Sunderland’s premier music and performance venue The Fire Station, don’t miss this final opportunity to experience a legend live in concert at Sunderland Empire.
