The Legendary artist Joan Baez will embark on a series of select
shows this summer. The tour follows a string of landmark years for
Baez, who was recently profiled in Public Television's American
Masters documentary, Joan Baez: How Sweet The Sound.
The summer tour will feature repertoire spanning her five decade
career as well as songs from Baez's recent Grammy-nominated album,
Day After Tomorrow (Bobolink/Razor & Tie Entertainment), about which
the Boston Globe proclaimed, "A half century into her career, folk
icon Joan Baez is making a return of sorts-not to vintage material,
but to songs that evoke the spirit and message of her defining early
work…Baez has never sounded wiser, or more deeply human."
Just recently in Madrid, Baez received the "Orden de las Artes y las
Letras de España" ("Order of Arts and Letters from Spain"), the most
prestigious award given to foreign artists in Spain. It was bestowed
under Royal Decree as proposed by the Minister of Culture, Angeles
Gonzalez-Sinde, who said, "Baez has been a benchmark that transcends
the field of music for a generation of Spanish defenders of
political freedom and peaceful coexistence." |
