Described by Time Magazine as ‘America’s greatest songwriter’ Lucinda Williams is one of rock’s most uncompromising and consistently fascinating writers and performers.
Over the course of a recording career that’s now in its fourth decade, the Louisiana-born singer and three-time Grammy Award winner has navigated terrain as varied as the dust-bowl starkness of her 1978 debut Ramblin’ (recorded on the fly with a mere $250 budget), the stately elegance of 2007’s West which Vanity Fair called ‘the record of a lifetime’ and the emotional spectrum of her most recent release, Blessed, which features Elvis Costello on guitar. With reports of a new album possibly in 2013, this show reunites Williams with her long-time collaborator and friend guitarist Doug Pettibone.
British singer/songwriter Jimmy Livingstone has been described as 'a modern-day Glen Campbell crossed with Richard Hawley'. His debut album, One eye open, one eye closed, featured Doug Pettibone amongst its musicians.
