The Capitol Theatre Presents Judy Collins, 2/15

The Capitol Theatre presents GRAMMY Award-winner Judy Collins on Thursday, February 15 at 7:30 pm. Tickets go on sale Saturday, July 15 at 10 am.

Judy Collins has inspired audiences with sublime vocals, boldly vulnerable songwriting, personal life triumphs and a firm commitment to social activism. In the '60s, she evoked both 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.

The award-winning singer-songwriter is esteemed for her imaginative interpretations of traditional and contemporary folk standards and her own poetically poignant original compositions. Her stunning rendition of Joni Mitchell's Both Sides Now from her landmark 1967 album, Wildflowers, has been entered into the GRAMMY Hall of Fame. Judy's dreamy and sweetly intimate version of Send in the Clowns, a ballad written by Stephen Sondheim for the Broadway musical A Little Night Music, won "Song of the Year" at the 1975 GRAMMY Awards. She's garnered several top-10 hits gold- and platinum-selling albums. Recently, contemporary and classic artists such as Rufus Wainwright, Shawn Colvin, Dolly Parton, Joan Baez and Leonard Cohen honored her legacy with the album Born to the Breed: A Tribute to Judy Collins.

Earlier this year, Judy released a DVD special Judy Collins: A Love Letter To Stephen Sondheim. In 2016, she released a collaborative album with writing partner Ari Hest, Silver Skies Blue, which has been GRAMMY nominated for BEST FOLK ALBUM and In 2015, Collins released Strangers Again. She invited a cast of icons and young talents to sing with her on this fresh collection, from Willie Nelson, Jackson Browne and Jeff Bridges to Glen Hansard, Ari Hest and Bhi Bhiman.
