  3. WOODBRIDGE TOWNSHIP PRESENTS KARLA BONOFF


She’s described as one of the nest singer/songwriters of her generation. And in her case, that description is not hyperbole. With a career spanning four decades, Karla Bonoff has enjoyed critical acclaim, commercial success, enduring popularity and the unwavering respect of her peers. In addition to achieving chart success with her own recordings, Karla has seen her songs become hits for such stellar artists as Bonnie Raitt, Wynonna Judd and Linda Ronstadt. Many of Bonoff’s ballads are now pop classics. All the while, she has continued to tour extensively, playing sold-out shows around the world. Karla’s moving vocals on her rich, expressive songs is like standing beneath a sparkling waterfall–refreshing, exhilarating, restorative. And hearing them live can be transformative. In 2007, nearly 40 years into her writing, recording and performing, the singularly gifted singer/songwriter had at last produced a live album. Karla Bonoff Live is a superb two-CD set containing 21 songs, including some of Bonoff’s most popular material (“All My Life,” “Someone to Lay Down Beside Me,” “Tell Me Why,” and “Lose Again”) plus two new compositions. Many fans and critics prefer Bonoff’s own renditions of her songs, and they won’t be disappointed here. Like her performances, the instrumentation is clean and spare, giving Bonoff’s voice room to work its emotional magic on the listener. Live is Bonoff’s rst solo album since 1999, when she released a 16-song greatest hits collection, All My Life: The Best of Karla Bonoff (Columbia/Legacy). 2018 brought Karla her rst new CD release in over a decade! Entitled, Carry Me Home, this 16-song set featured brand new recordings of Karla’s classics and new songs by Karla, Kenny Edwards and a vintage Jackson Browne song, Something Fine, which Karla performed in the 2015 compilation, Looking Into You: A Tribute To Jackson Browne, along with fellow artists Don Henley, Bonnie Raitt, Indigo Girls, David Lindley, Lyle Lovett, Keb Mo, Lucinda Williams, Shawn Colvin and Bruce Springsteen. Woodbridge Township presents Karla Bonoff at The Avenel Performing Arts Center with support from Woodbridge Arts.
