A Tribute to Gram Parsons & Emmylou Harris
This tribute celebrates the partnership of Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris, whose voices and musical vision helped define country rock and laid groundwork for what would later be called Americana. Parsons described his hybrid of country, soul, R&B, folk and rock as “Cosmic American Music,” and his recordings with Harris gave that idea its most enduring expression.
A gathering of Bay Area artists revisits songs associated with the pair, honoring both their close harmonies and the emotional directness of the music. The program traces how their brief collaboration expanded the possibilities of country songwriting and continues to influence generations of performers who move freely between roots traditions, rock stages and singer-songwriter intimacy.
