Concert | Grammy Winning Blues Legend Headlines Outdoor Concert (In a Park)

Wednesday, June 7, 2023, 7:00 pm

Free

Blues musician Taj Mahal; with Corrine Bailey Rae; The Harlem Gospel Travelers; and DJ Tara.

About the Performers
77-year old Taj Mahal is a towering musical figure - a legend who transcended the blues not by leaving them behind, but by revealing their magnificent scope to the world. A 2017 Grammy win for TajMo, Taj's collaboration with Keb' Mo', brought his Grammy tally to three wins and 14 nominations. Blues Hall of Fame membership, a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Americana Music Association, and other honors punctuate his resume.

Singer/songwriter/musician Corinne Bailey Rae shot to stardom with her self-titled #1 UK debut album in 2006, featuring the global hits Put Your Records On and Like A Star. Bailey Rae has received two Grammy Awards. She was awarded her first Grammy in 2008 for Album Of The Year when featured on Herbie Hancock's River: The Joni Letters. Her EP Is This Love garnered a Grammy for Best R&B Performance. In 2016 Bailey Rae returned with "boundary-defying, epic music" (NPR) for her third studio album, The Heart Speaks In Whispers, also declared "the best R&B of 2016" (The Guardian). The album featured the stunning Green Aphrodisiac, named "10 best R&B songs of 2016" (Billboard) and selected by President Obama for his summer playlist.

The Harlem Gospel Travelers draws deeply on the gospel quartet tradition of the '50s and '60s, with a distinctly modern edge. The group - singers Thomas Gatling, George Marage, and Dennis Bailey - released their debut LP, He's On Time, to rave reviews in 2019, with Pop Matters hailing the album's "musical transcendence" and AllMusic praising it as "dreamlike and joyous." The record charted on Billboard, earned the Travelers high profile fans like Elton John (who invited them to appear on his Rocket Hour radio show on Apple Music), and landed them festival slots everywhere from Pilgrimage to Telluride Jazz.

DJ Tara spins a collage of soulful sounds that capture an eclectic vibe. Her sets acknowledge the past while looking to the future and celebrating the now.

Doors open 6:00 pm.
