Two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Famer and co-founder of The Byrds and Crosby, Stills & Nash, David Crosby is heading to The Ridgefield Playhouse on June 12
Two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Famer and co-founder of The Byrds and Crosby, Stills & Nash, David Crosby is heading out on tour! An indelible cultural touchstone for more than three generations, Crosby has collaborated with dozens of artists, including Joni Mitchell, James Taylor, Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour, Phil Collins, Elton John and Carole King and is one of the few artists to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice! Crosby is in the midst of an incredibly creative and powerful period, showcasing his skills as the brilliant songwriter that he is. On this tour, he will be performing music from his latest album Sky Trails alongside some of his best-loved songs and greatest hits.
He graces the stage at The Ridgefield Playhouse Tuesday, June 12th at 7:30pm, part of the Pepsi Rock Series powered by Xfinity. Visit The Village Tavern (378 Main Street • Ridgefield) for dinner the night of the show and enjoy a complimentary glass of house wine or draft beer with the purchase of an entree with your ticket! Media partner for this event is i95, The Home of Rock n’ Roll.
Crosby is a folk-rock pioneer and was inducted into the prestigious Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2009. He has also served as our social conscience, not only eloquently writing about societal issues on such songs as “Almost Cut My Hair” and “Wooden Ships,” but continuously donating concert proceeds to like-minded causes (a portion of your ticket purchase will benefit one of the artist’s causes.) His towering influence and brilliant ability to capture the spirit of our times in his music remains undiminished. His latest album Sky Trails has garnered critical success with Rolling Stone stating that the album, “...affirms this late-career marvel's almost uncanny ability to reconcile his youthful inspiration and ideals with mature wisdom.” Joining him on stage will be five musical friends, James Raymond on keys, Mai Agan on bass, Steve DiStanislao on drums, Jeff Pevar on guitar and Michelle Willis on keys and vocals.
