This one-night-only evening of stories and songs celebrates the singer-songwriter movement of the 1960s and 70s with hits by five of its defining voices: Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Carole King, James Taylor and Paul Simon. Emerging in the wake of the 1960s counterculture, this powerful new wave of poetic and deeply personal songs marked a cultural turn in popular music from collective protest to intimate storytelling, and captured the spirit of an era. Get a new perspective on favorites like “Both Sides Now,” “The Times They Are a-Changin’,” “Fire and Rain,” The Sound of Silence” and many more.
