Celebrating An Icon

A star-studded line-up of some of the greatest names in the folk-rock revival and those they influenced come together in San Francisco to celebrate the iconic legacy of Joan Baez! With performances from Baez herself as well as from Emmylou Harris, Rosanne Cash, Tom Morello, Hozier, Margo Price, Taj Mahal, Lucinda Williams and more special guests yet to be announced, don't miss this one-off gathering of the greatest!

Folk icon Baez first came to prominence in the 1960s with her brand of soft and husky ballads that often covered topical issues of the day. Achieving immediate success with her first three albums, all achieved gold record status and remained in the charts for two years afterwards. An instrumental ally in the Civil Rights Movement, Baez could often be seen marching alongside Dr Martin Luther King, landing in jail a few times as a result. She was even caught up in the Vietnam War during the Christmas Campaign of 1972, which only cemented her commitment to campaigning. Time and age haven't slowed Baez down however, as she continues to campaign for peace and non-violence.
