See Grammy® Award-winning singer-songwriters Shawn Colvin and Steve Earle live in concert! “Songs and Stories, Together Onstage” features the two esteemed artists sharing the stage for a rousing night of song swapping, duets, storytelling, and stellar guitar playing. The evening promises to be a rich and inspiring musical experience as these two long-time friends and mutual admirers share music from their extensive catalogues as well as some of their favorite songs by other classic songwriters.

Shawn Colvin stands out as a singular and enduring talent. Her songs are works of craft and catharsis that become treasured lifetime companions for their listeners. In the 25 years since the release of her debut album, she has won three Grammy Awards, including Song of the Year and Record of the Year for the hit single "Sunny Came Home," and has been nominated for another seven.

Steve Earle quickly became a master storyteller in his own right, his songs recorded by Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Emmylou Harris, Waylon Jennings, Travis Tritt, the Pretenders, Joan Baez, and many others. In 1986, his debut record, Guitar Town, shot to No. 1 on the country charts and immediately established the term “new country.” (from )
